IEA delegation travels to Turkey for truce talks, says Mujahid
The spokesperson for the Islamic Emirate, Zabihullah Mujahid, announced on Friday that a delegation led by Rahmatullah Najib, Deputy Minister of Interior, has traveled to Turkey following the ceasefire agreement between Afghanistan and Pakistan that was signed in Doha.
According to Mujahid, the meeting is expected to focus on discussions regarding the remaining issues of the ceasefire agreement between Kabul and Islamabad.
Meanwhile, sources told Ariana News that the remaining issues likely to be discussed between Afghanistan and Pakistan in Turkey are as follows:
- Establishing a monitoring mechanism to prevent hostile actions against each other.
- Strict observance and implementation of existing laws to ensure respect for the national sovereignty of both countries.
- Understanding the root causes of Pakistan’s security challenges over the past two decades.
- Removing obstacles to trade, halting the forced deportation of refugees, ending border closures, and refraining from using such issues for political purposes.
Khalifa Sirajuddin Haqqani, Minister of Interior of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan, said during a visit to Khost province on Friday that any government which rules through fear cannot be considered a true government.
“A government is one that is loved by its people, one that serves them with respect and compassion, and from whose behavior people learn ethics and sincerity,” he said.
Haqqani also stressed that Afghans who opposed the Islamic Emirate in the past should be tolerated and treated in a way that helps eliminate hostility and animosity, paving the way for national cohesion.
Noor Jalal Jalali, Afghanistan’s Minister of Public Health, is likely to visit India next week, Indian newspaper Tribune reported.
Jalali will be the third minister from the Islamic Emirate to visit India, following Amir Khan Muttaqi, Minister of Foreign Affairs, and Nooruddin Azizi, Minister of Industry and Commerce.
The visit comes as health cooperation between the two countries expands. New Delhi is currently supporting major medical infrastructure projects in Afghanistan and supplying medicines and vaccines to strengthen public health services.
Although India does not formally recognize the Islamic Emirate, it has recently sought to deepen its engagement with Kabul.
Pakistan’s Minister of State for Interior Talal Chaudhry on Friday met with UK’s Minister of State for International Development and Africa, Baroness Chapman of Darlington, to discuss a range of issues, including the relocation of Afghan nationals to the United Kingdom.
According to a press release from Pakistan’s Ministry of State for Interior, Baroness Chapman welcomed and commended Pakistan’s initiatives in facilitating migration cooperation between the two countries.
The officials also held talks on security matters.
