Everyone should study ‘deeply’ in their field: Muttaqi
Acting Minister of Foreign Affairs Amir Khan Muttaqi has asked the young members of the government to read books in order to raise their level of education and gain more knowledge in their profession, saying the youth are the main leaders and rulers of the present and future in the country.
In a meeting with the youths, Muttaqi said that security has been ensured throughout the country and that it has come due to the round-the-clock efforts of the security forces.
“It is important for everyone to study deeply in their profession… Today, in any language you want, books have been written in your field. If you want to excel, everyone should pick and read a book about their profession. When someone is entrusted with responsibility, he is obliged by Sharia to have knowledge in that profession,” Muttaqi said.
He noted that IEA has been able to keep the value of afghani stable.
“Despite all the restrictions, the banks are interacting well, 10 lakh civil servants get salary from banks. The wealth of the people was preserved. Bank visits have increased. Domestic revenues have increased. New banknotes come,” Muttaqi said.
He said that instead of hating and criticizing others, youths should start reforms from themselves and accept each other.
“Correct yourselves. Create timetable for your life. Arrive at your office on time. Make your livelihood halal. Pay attention to the us national treasury. Do not drive cars fearlessly. These are the things with which our government improves,” Muttaqi said.
He said that the existing government in the country was not established by demonstrations and meetings, but countless sacrifices were made in this way, and now is the time to use the opportunities for the development of the country.

Pakistan says cross-Durand Line communities seek peace and stability
Pakistan says communities living along the Afghanistan-Pakistan Durand Line want peace and stability, despite ongoing security concerns in the region.
Speaking during a weekly media briefing, Pakistan Foreign Office spokesperson Tahir Andrabi said there are no major issues between the people of Afghanistan and Pakistan, adding that residents on both sides of the Durand Line want peaceful relations and greater regional stability.
However, Andrabi claimed that terrorism originating from Afghan territory continues to undermine peace efforts.
He said Islamabad believes militant activity crossing from Afghanistan remains a significant obstacle to improving regional security and bilateral ties.
The Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan has repeatedly rejected such allegations, maintaining that no militant group is allowed to use Afghan soil to threaten neighboring countries.
Andrabi also said Pakistan remains diplomatically engaged on regional matters involving Afghanistan, Iran, India, and Somalia, stressing that dialogue and diplomacy remain Islamabad’s preferred means of resolving disputes.

Pakistan’s Achakzai calls for freer movement across disputed Durand Line
Mahmood Khan Achakzai, a member of Pakistan’s National Assembly and head of the Pakhtunkhwa Awami National Party, has said that if capable statesmen had been in power, people living on both sides of the Durand Line could have moved freely across the line.
Speaking during a podcast interview, Achakzai said that countries with histories of major conflict, including Russia, Germany and the United Kingdom, now maintain far more open borders despite past wars. He said that in many such regions, only a “paper line” remains, with limited border restrictions.
Drawing comparisons with the disputed Durand Line boundary between Afghanistan and Pakistan, Achakzai argued that a similar arrangement could have been possible in South Asia.
“What is the problem here? A Punjabi could dance in Kandahar and a Pashtun could come here. Even if we are not formally one country, we could have effectively functioned like one,” he said.
The Pakistani politician also referred to the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan and the later U.S.-led intervention, saying Afghanistan has the right to seek war reparations from those countries to support reconstruction efforts.
Achakzai further criticised the treatment of Pashtuns in Pakistan, alleging that individuals in cities including Lahore and Karachi have faced detention and deportation.
