The Deputy Spokesperson for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs emphasized Afghanistan’s current state of stability and security, while also highlighting that the complete eradication of the ISIS threat would be possible if the group’s hideouts along the Durand Line were neutralized.
Hafiz Zia Ahmad Takal further clarified that Afghanistan is no longer reliant on foreign loans and aid. Instead, the nation is making significant strides toward economic self-sufficiency by harnessing its own resources.
