Fasihuddin Fitrat, the chief of staff of the Ministry of Defense, spoke about nationwide security, stating that warlordism has been eliminated in the country.
Mawlawi Mohammad Yaqoob Mujahid, the acting minister of defense, stressed positive relations with world countries during a ceremony in Kabul today (Thursday).
Speaking at the inauguration of a new section of Sardar Mohammad Daud Khan Hospital, he stated that Afghanistan is part of the world and that the Islamic Emirate is fully prepared for positive engagement with all countries based on national and Islamic interests.
Mawlawi Mohammad Yaqoob Mujahid said: “As long as it does not contradict our national interests, we are ready to engage with all countries. We are part of this world and want to live alongside the global community.”
The acting minister also stated that the Islamic Emirate supports domestic professionals and urged Afghans living abroad to return and contribute to Afghanistan’s reconstruction.
He said: “Our request is that they return to their country and serve the people. It is true that salaries are higher there, facilities are better, and life is more comfortable. We also understand that some may have concerns, but this is a great goal.”
Meanwhile, Fasihuddin Fitrat, the chief of staff of the Ministry of Defense, spoke about nationwide security, stating that warlordism has been eliminated in the country.
Fasihuddin Fitrat further stated: “There are those who fought against the world’s greatest powers for twenty years, and today they have the capability to fully defend Afghanistan. We have proven this in practice—whoever rises against us anywhere in Afghanistan has been crushed on the spot.”
Officials from the Ministry of Defense announced that the new section of Sardar Mohammad Daud Khan Hospital, which was previously used as a military base by NATO forces under the former government, has been transformed into a fully equipped 100-bed hospital at a cost of two billion afghani.
