Mujahid told TOLOnews that the participation of the Islamic Emirate in this summit marks the start of the interim government’s interactions with Islamic countries.
The Islamic Emirate responded to the final resolution of the 15th summit of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) in Gambia, stating that the measures concerning Afghanistan, as outlined in the resolution, have already been enacted by the interim government.
Zabihullah Mujahid, the spokesperson for the Islamic Emirate, told TOLOnews that the participation of representatives of the Islamic Emirate in this summit marks the commencement of the interim government’s interactions with Islamic countries.
He described the participation of a delegation from the interim government at this meeting as an achievement and added: “The resolution they issued includes all the work that has been done in Afghanistan, such as the rights of the citizens– that the people of Afghanistan have their rights, the inclusivity of the system — currently Afghanistan has a government where all ethnicities have their representatives and all provinces have their representatives, and also the topic of effectively combating external factions in Afghanistan. This was a very successful participation and it was the first time that the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan participated in the meeting of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation, and this participation is a starting point for effective interaction with Islamic countries.”
Moeen Gul Samkani, a political analyst, said: “It would be better if we could have a grand assembly to discuss the world’s demands and alongside this discuss what the Afghans want from the world, and decide on these matters.”
Sayed Moqadam Amin, another political analyst, stated: “The task of the Islamic Emirate is political, within the framework of the law or rights it has fewer problems, meaning the elements that constitute a political system are completed here; however, in the political sphere, international standards are subject to a series of laws that undoubtedly need to be focused on.”
The final resolution of the 15th summit of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation emphasized the creation of an inclusive government, respect for women’s rights, and support for the people in Afghanistan.
Representatives from over 50 Islamic countries participated in this two-day summit in Gambia.
