Supporting government promotes stability: Sa’adat

Published

Supporting the government promotes stability and Afghanistan should not experience another collapse, Abdul Satar Sa’adat, a former presidential adviser said this week.

In an exclusive interview with Ariana News, Sa’adat said that every collapse of government in Afghanistan has caused a new crisis in the country.

According to Sa’adati who had acted as an adviser to former president Ashraf Ghani, monopoly of power and US occupation of Afghanistan were the main reasons why the Republic collapsed.

He said that the Ghani-led government was not established well and foreigners were to blame for the same.

“There have been instances of external factors toppling the governments. There have also been internal factors. Foreign invasions have toppled the governments and those formed after the invasion also collapsed, “ Sa’adat said.

On the issue of closure of girls’ schools, Sa’adat said that it was likely that wrong information was being delivered to the supreme leader of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan (IEA).

“There may be misinformation. It would be better if Sheikh Sahib (Hebatullah Akhundzada) come to Kabul and himself see everything,” Sa’adat said.

On armed opposition against IEA, Sa’adat said that Afghans are tired of war and they don’t support fighting.

“I don’t support fighting. No Afghan should be treated as an outsider. No one should be allowed to fight. No one should be interested in fighting. I think Afghans do not welcome fighting,” Sa’adat said.

He said that although the current government is not internationally recognized as official government of Afghanistan, but it is has earned moral, religious and public legitimacy.

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.
