Taleban’s Relations With World Are ‘Improving’, says Deputy PM
Mawlawi Abdul Kabir said that the Islamic Emirate will continue its positive diplomacy with the world.
Kabul: The Deputy Prime Minister, Mawlawi Abdul Kabir, said that the Islamic Emirate’s relations with the international community are improving.
Speaking to a gathering of instructors who returned from their educational programs abroad, he said that the Islamic Emirate’s embassies are opened in 16 countries.
“The world knows it and timely reaches a hand for engagement with the Islamic Emirate. You know that our embassy is open in 16 countries,” he said.
Mawlawi Abdul Kabir said that the Islamic Emirate will continue its positive diplomacy with the world.
“The Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan is committed to protecting the Islamic government. We continue to provide security and ensure diplomacy and we will continue to engage with the world,” he said.
Speaking at the same gathering, a senior member of the Islamic Emirate, Anas Haqqani, said that the Islamic Emirate came to power through sacrifices not political deals.
“Many people are thinking — due to propaganda — some are of this mindset– that this government will not endure and that this government is like a guest for only some nights. Many good people are worried about it. Many investors and major traders, academics and those who are outside are worried that it is possible that (the Islamic Emirate) is a guest for only some days,” he said.
“I want to assure you, we have not come here easily nor through deals. We arrived here through sacrifice… The world has tested its power. After they understood that they could not stand here, they withdrew.”
The meeting at the gathering was held two days before the 2nd anniversary of the collapse of the former government.
