KABUL – Statement by the Office of the Spokesperson and Directorate General of Communications – MoFA regarding the statement by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Pakistan:
Given the sensitivity of the situation and the opportunities arisen to achieve a permanent peace in Afghanistan and the region, comments and statements that spoil this trend are not favorable to the Afghan Peace Process.
The Afghan government and the international community call on Pakistani government officials to utilize their influence and control over the Taliban to bring them back to the negotiating table for meaningful talks to end the war and bloodshed in Afghanistan, thus ensuring peace in Afghanistan would help eliminate global terrorism threat benefiting Pakistan and the international community.
Unrealistic and untrue statements will obstruct strengthening relations between the two countries.
Afghanistan is determined to discuss important and key issues with Pakistan through diplomatic channels.
