Mujahid dismissed the US President’s remarks about reclaiming Bagram Airbase and the leftover military equipment, calling it mere speculation. He asserted that Bagram Airbase is currently under Afghanistan’s control, and there is no agreement to hand it over to China or the United States.
Addressing recent reports, Mujahid said: “Lately, we have seen false information and baseless propaganda being spread, which are merely rumors aimed at misleading public perception. These actions take place because access to media is now very easy; however, no one can impose false news and propaganda on others, as everything becomes clear in a short time.”
He also highlighted that the Islamic Emirate has made progress in foreign relations, but engagement requires mutual efforts.
Speaking on foreign policy, Mujahid said: “The United States remains a major global player, and other countries either interact with it cautiously or fear it. However, what we request is that countries should engage with us independently and not require US approval.”
Fazal Rahman Oria, a political analyst, told TOLOnews: “Interactions should naturally be mutual, and it is in the interests of all parties—including Western countries, the US, and Afghanistan—to have positive engagements.”
Previously, former US President Donald Trump claimed that Bagram Airbase is now under China’s control.
