IEA and Saudi relations on solid ground, say Islamic Emirate

Published

on

The Islamic Emirate’s deputy spokesman says the security of all diplomats and diplomatic missions in the country is ensured and that countries can continue their diplomatic activities in Afghanistan without any concerns.

Bilal Karimi said that there is no problem in the relationship between the Islamic Emirate and Saudi Arabia.

Karimi expressed hope that the diplomats of Saudi Arabia can continue their activities in Afghanistan without any concerns.

“We hope that no country, including Saudi Arabia, will have any concerns in our country and that they will be present in our country without any problems,” said Karimi.

“The Islamic Emirate is very serious about the protection and security of diplomatic places and has assured all countries in this regard.”

Last year reports were leaked to the media that Saudi Arabia had stopped the activity of its embassy in Kabul and withdrawn its diplomats from Afghanistan.

Currently, the embassies and diplomatic missions of many countries in the region, including China, Russia, the European Union, Turkey, Qatar, Iran, Uzbekistan, Japan, and neighboring countries, are open in Kabul and have good relations with the IEA.

The IEA officials said that the active diplomatic missions of regional countries in Afghanistan mean the expansion of diplomatic ties with these countries.

Although IEA has made progress in diplomatic relations with the countries of the region and the world in less than two years, no country has yet been willing to recognize the new government of Afghanistan.

Zalmay Khalilzad, the former US special representative for Afghanistan, has questioned Pakistan’s commitment to the welfare of the Afghan people, citing Islamabad’s policies over the past three decades.

Khalilzad said in a post on X that Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif advocated for the rights of Afghan women during his speech at the UN General Assembly on Friday.

Sharif said: “Fundamental rights of the Afghan people — especially women and girls — must be respected.”

Responding to the remarks, Khalilzad said Pakistan’s policies over the past 30 years raise questions about Sharif’s commitment to Afghan welfare.

He cited Pakistan’s support for militant groups against US forces and what he described as the poor treatment of Afghan refugees as examples.

Khalilzad also said Afghanistan and Pakistan need and should have much better relations, adding that “a reset is necessary.”

Kazakhstan’s Foreign Minister Mukhtar Tileuberdi has called for pragmatic and coordinated international engagement with Afghanistan, saying the country’s long-term stability is closely linked to the security and sustainable development of Central Asia.

Speaking during the general debate of the 81st session of the United Nations General Assembly in New York on Friday, Tileuberdi said humanitarian assistance to Afghanistan remains essential but alone cannot break the cycle of poverty, displacement and dependency.

He said Kazakhstan supports a “pragmatic, coordinated and step-by-step” approach to international engagement with Afghanistan, with the United Nations playing a central role.

Tileuberdi also said Kazakhstan is working with the UN to operationalize the United Nations Regional Centre for the Sustainable Development Goals for Central Asia and Afghanistan in Almaty.

He said the success of the centre should be measured by the results and assistance it delivers to the region.
