Fitrat: Maintaining Stability, Islamic System ‘Our Duty’

He further said: “The fundamental and primary objective of our Islamic and national army is to maintain stability, security, and the Islamic system.”

Fasihuddin Fitrat, the chief of staff of the Ministry of Defense, criticized what he called negative propaganda against the caretaker government during the graduation ceremony of the special forces division.

Fitrat said that the international community must understand that the Islamic Emirate remains ready, as in the past, to defend the people of Afghanistan and preserve the Islamic system in the country.

The chief of staff of the Ministry of Defense stated: “Today, we consider it our duty to maintain this Islamic system and to safeguard the nationwide stability and security that has been established in Afghanistan.”

Fasihuddin Fitrat also mentioned in the program that the creation of an Islamic army is not intended for war with neighboring or other countries but rather for the protection of borders and Islamic values.

He further said: “The fundamental and primary objective of our Islamic and national army is to maintain stability, security, and the Islamic system.”

This defense official described the current security situation in the country as good and emphasized the need for further equipping and preparing security forces to sustain the existing security.

Regarding the preparation of security forces, he stated: “Just as we paid serious attention to preparing the Mujahideen against infidels and occupation during the period of Jihad, today, it is also necessary for us to consider preparing the Mujahideen in our duty to maintain stability and security.”

Previously, the chief of staff of the Ministry of Defense had also spoken about ensuring nationwide security in a program in Kabul and stated that warlordism has been eliminated in the country.
