IEA once again calls for good relations with international community
The Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan (IEA) has called on Afghanistan’s neighbors, the region and the world to play a positive role in building good and strong relations with them.
The IEA made the call in a statement marking the 42nd anniversary of the former Soviet Union’s invasion of Afghanistan. The former Soviet Union invaded Afghanistan on December, 1979, but was defeated ten years later.
Enamullah Samangani, the IEA’s deputy spokesman, posted the statement on Twitter, saying that securing good relations with the world would lead to good steps towards security and prosperity in the world and eliminate the problems, devastation and disbelief left over from past wars.
Samangani also wrote that Afghanistan does not interfere in the internal affairs of any other country and will not allow any country to violate the rights of the Afghan people and interfere in the internal affairs of this country.
“Afghans, as a peaceful nation, want to establish good and strong relations with the international community within the framework of Islamic and international principles, where there is no possibility of harm to anyone and the right to freedom of nations is protected,” he wrote.
More than four months have passed since the IEA took control of Afghanistan, but so far no country has formally recognized their government, but a limited number of countries have started to engage with the IEA.
On this day, 42 years ago, Soviet forces left Afghanistan following tough resistance from Afghan people and Mujahidden.
Afghanistan was invaded on 27th of December 1979 from both ground and air.
Soviet troops entered into Afghanistan from different directions including Torghundi, Hairatan and Sherkhan borders.
The Russian Occupation which lasted for nine years claimed around two million lives.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan has announced the release of American citizen Dennis Coyle from prison.
According to the ministry, Coyle’s mother had written to the leader of the Islamic Emirate demanding amnesty and the release of her son on the occasion of Eid, and the Supreme Court considered his imprisonment sufficient and decided to release him.
The United Kingdom has announced an additional £3 million (AFN 257 million) in humanitarian assistance to Afghanistan, aimed at supporting people affected by natural disasters and other shocks.
Richard Lindsay, in a post on X, said the funding will be used to provide essential nutrition supplies and related support to vulnerable populations.
The new allocation brings the UK’s total bilateral assistance to Afghanistan for the current financial year to £154 million (AFN 13.18 billion).
