The deputy prime minister for political affairs also criticized the 20-year presence of the US in the country.
Mawlawi Abdul Kabir, the deputy prime minister for political affairs, said in a program today (Thursday) that in the past, resolutions were passed against the Islamic Emirate in the Security Council. However, now two permanent members of the Security Council are cooperating with the Islamic Emirate during its meetings.
The deputy prime minister for political affairs, during this program in Kabul, once again stressed engagement with world countries and added that there is no issue in the Islamic Emirate’s interaction with the world.
Mawlawi Abdul Kabir said: “We have reached a level in the political sector where two permanent members of the Security Council cooperate with us most of the time. Even regarding the law of ‘Amr bil Ma’ruf’ (Promotion of Virtue), which caused a stir around the world, the United Nations and the Security Council were unable to issue a resolution against us.”
Mawlawi Abdul Kabir once again pledged that Afghan soil would not be used against other countries. He said: “If the world is concerned that there are groups in Afghanistan that cause them problems; there were no problems for you before, and this claim was from your side. There is no such problem now either.”
This high-ranking official of the Islamic Emirate clarified in the program that the Islamic Emirate has achieved significant progress in the political sector, and currently, 40 diplomatic missions of the Islamic Emirate are active in countries around the world.
Mawlawi Abdul Kabir also mentioned that during his trips to Iran and Qatar, he held talks with representatives from other countries, including France, Canada, Australia, South Korea, Italy, Germany, and the United States. They stated that apart from the issue of girls’ education, they have no problem in interacting with the Islamic Emirate.
The deputy prime minister for political affairs further added: “I very boldly told them [representatives of the countries] that except for the issue of women’s education, we are ready to engage with you on any other matter you have.”
The deputy prime minister for political affairs also criticized the 20-year presence of the US in the country, stating that during the 20-year presence of foreign countries in Afghanistan, drug usage had reached its peak.
