Pakistan accuses the Islamic Emirate of supporting its opposition groups, including the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP).
Pakistani officials say that TTP has plotted and carried out attacks on them from Afghanistan.
However the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan (IEA) has repeatedly denied such allegations and has accused Pakistan of supporting Daesh.
Sharif and Li also called for the strengthening of anti-terrorism cooperation on a bilateral and multilateral level and called on the Islamic Emirate government to take concrete and verifiable measures to eliminate terrorist groups active in this country.
The two leaders also emphasized the importance of strengthening communication and coordination regarding the situation in Afghanistan and called for “coordinated efforts of the international community to encourage the Islamic Emirate to establish an inclusive political framework and implement moderate policies.”
The two countries agreed to play a constructive role in supporting the sustainable development of Afghanistan and its integration into the international community.
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.
