Afghanistan Peace CampaignPrice made the remarks in response to a question asking about the UN report on al-Qaeda.
A spokesman for the US Department of State, Ned Price, said that the “Taliban” made private and public commitments to not allow the territory of Afghanistan to be used as a safe haven for those who would plot against the United States.
Price made the remarks in response to a question asking about the UN report on al-Qaeda.
“When it comes to other al-Qaida members, including those who are in Afghanistan, our message is twofold. One, to the Taliban, the Taliban has a commitment. It has made private commitments, it has made public commitments to uphold that it does not allow Afghanistan’s territory to be used as a safe haven for those who would plot against the United States,” Price said, adding that “Our second point is that we are prepared, willing, and able to take action ourselves if the Taliban is unable or unwilling to fulfill the commitments that it has made.”
But the Islamic Emirate said that they would not allow anyone to use Afghan soil against other countries.
He also said that the al-Qaeda is “just another example of Iran’s wide-ranging support for terrorism,” and “its destabilizing activities in the Middle East and beyond.”
But the Iran President, Ebrahim Raisi in a visit to China accused the US of supporting the Daesh group in the region.
“The US sought to create extremism and militant groups and insecurity in Iran and Islamic countries. It pursued terrorist groups such as Daesh and al-Qaeda,” he said.
The political analysts give various opinions on the matter:
“The sides should be committed to the issues of terrorism both the Islamic Emirate and the ruling government of Islam,” said Mohammad Zalmai Afghan Yar, a political analyst.
Earlier, a United Nations team said that after the killing of Ayman al-Zawahiri in Kabul, Saif al Adel has become the new leader of the network.
According to a report in the Washington Examiner, the new leader of al Qaeda is Saif al Adel — a long-time jihadi who has spent years operating in Iran under the protection of the Iranian regime.
