Afghanistan Peace CampaignMawlawi Abdul Kabir also described Afghanistan’s current political situation as positive.
Mawlawi Abdul Kabir, the deputy political prime minister, stated that the interim government is prepared for positive engagement with the world to rebuild and improve the country’s economic situation.
In an interview with RTA, Mawlawi Abdul Kabir said that those contemplating the reoccupation of Afghanistan through force should learn from the past struggles of Afghans against major powers.
The deputy political prime minister said: “Anyone who comes with coercion and force is an enemy of our Islamic system. The Afghan people and the Islamic Emirate will never allow it. If they fail to learn from past experiences, Afghanistan’s history against oppressors is clear.”
According to Mawlawi Abdul Kabir, Afghanistan has historically suffered due to misguided policies that prioritized the interests of Eastern and Western powers and now it is essential for Afghanistan to maintain a balanced policy between the East and the West.
He stated: “It is necessary that we neither use Afghanistan in favor of the East against the West nor against the East. Afghanistan, as an Islamic and independent state, must preserve its Islamic system, independence, and neutrality.”
Mawlawi Abdul Kabir also described Afghanistan’s current political situation as positive, adding that the interim government has established extensive relations with various countries. He called on nations that have yet to engage with the interim government to establish political relations.
He further said: “Our diplomatic relations are so extensive that we have close to 40 representations worldwide. We call on neighboring, regional, and global countries to maintain positive interactions with us within the framework of Sharia. For countries without embassies in Kabul, we invite them to reopen their missions.”
These remarks about maintaining broad relations with the world come as, more than three years into the Islamic Emirate’s return to power, no country, including neighboring nations, has formally recognized the Islamic Emirate.
