Protester: “We are delivering a message to President Obama that he pay attention on Kashmir. We are suffering since the last sixty-two years in Kashmir. Kashmir is occupied by three countries: India, China and Pakistan. We need freedom. We need the involvement of the United Nations, world community, and especially the US president, the United States.”
