Hekmatyar claims US sent list to IEA to form inclusive government

The Hizb-e-Islami leader Gulbuddin Hekmatyar has claimed in his latest remarks that the United States has sent a list to the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan (IEA) to form an inclusive government.

Speaking in an online meeting with the party members based abroad on Friday, Hekmatyar said that the creation of an inclusive government was part of the Doha Agreement, and now Washington wants to increase the pressure on the IEA.

“The Islamic Emirate has been asked to form an inclusive government according to the Doha agreement, and it is even said that a list has been sent to them (Islamic Emirate),” said Hekmatyar.

Referring to the recent Afghan politicians’ meetings held in Russia, Norway and Tajikistan, he stated that countries that have strategic goals in Afghanistan allow political meetings on Afghanistan in their countries.

“The Taliban’s (IEA) oppositions have become active and are holding meetings, and, naturally, these countries do not simply allow and provide facilities for such meetings, probably these countries, which have tied their strategic interests with the situation in Afghanistan, are behind them and want to bring pressure,” he added.

He meanwhile said that the number of immigrants who are deported from Iran is more than Pakistan, and the forced deportation of immigrants will create problems for the IEA.
