Muttaqi Criticizes Global Inaction at National Labor Conference

He called on regional and global countries to fulfill their responsibilities in creating job opportunities in Afghanistan.

Amir Khan Muttaqi said: “The international community questions us and makes demands, asking about the status of narcotics, how it will be banned, how security will be ensured, and how the use of Afghan territory by groups will be prevented. Their demands are like this, but their cooperation is zero. We hope the international community will fulfill its responsibilities in this regard.”

Muttaqi further stated that the Islamic Emirate’s policy is to establish relations and interactions with regional and global countries and that the Islamic Emirate wants to send workers to other countries legally.

“There should be interactions with regional and global countries. Job opportunities should be provided for Afghan workers in other countries, and they should go legally,” the acting Minister of Foreign Affairs said

Mawlavi Abdul Kabir, the Deputy Political Prime Minister, also called for the lifting of sanctions imposed on the officials of the Islamic Emirate and the people of Afghanistan. He stated that the Islamic Emirate is committed to solving all the problems of the people as a responsible government in Afghanistan.

“We ask countries to lift the illegal and unjust restrictions on the oppressed people of Afghanistan and the leaders of the Islamic Emirate, and the Islamic Emirate will extend a hand of cooperation as an active member of the international community,” said Mawlavi Abdul Kabir.

The two-day National Labor Conference, organized by the Ministry of Labor and Social Affairs, began today (Tuesday) in Kabul and is aimed at combating unemployment and poverty.
