MOSCOW, June 4: Russia stands for solving the Kashmir issue according to the Shimla agreement, Kremlin sources have made it explicitly clear. They point out that President Boris Yeltsin, during his 1994 visit to New Delhi, had supported India's stand on the issue. The so-called three-point plan put forward by Russian foreign minister Yevgeni Primakov on the situation arising from the nuclear tests by India and Pakistan did not even mention Kashmir.Ria Novosti has quoted Primakov as having said that the Kremlin's concerns over the nuclear blasts were due to the fact that the world today ``abounds'' in extremist forces who were devoid of any sense of responsibility and often wore religious disguise. They were only anxious to lay their hands on destructive weapons.Russia is against internationalising any bilateral issue and keeps in mind the experience of Yugoslavia and Iraq, sources said.
