Most countries interested in cooperating with Islamic Emirate: Lyons
The UN envoy in Afghanistan Deborah Lyons said in a meeting with the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan’s acting interior minister Sirajuddin Haqqani that most countries are interested in cooperating with the Islamic Emirate (IE).
The meeting was held on Tuesday where Lyons thanked the acting minister for security, as well as the Ministry of Interior for their full cooperation and coordination.
Lyons described the meetings held at the United Nations on Afghanistan as very positive.
“Afghanistan is now in the spotlight of all countries and we pledge to continue our cooperation and collaboration on humanitarian aid, attracting foreign donors, as well as counter-narcotics cultivation and trafficking,” said Lyons.
Haqqani in turn welcomed Lyons and thanked her for presenting a true picture of Afghanistan at relevant UN meetings and reassured her that the IEA is committed to ensuring international organizations’ security and that they see to have peaceful interaction with the international community.
