US should stop putting economic pressure on Afghanistan: Mujahid
The Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan (IEA) calls on the United States to stop putting economic pressure on Afghanistan and to change its policy towards the country.
Speaking in an interview with a Turkish TV channel Monday, the spokesman of the Islamic Emirate Zabihullah Mujahid said that the method and policy that the US has adopted towards Afghanistan is not a successful policy and warned that America and other countries of the world will not benefit from insecurity and instability in Afghanistan.
“The solution is that America should remove its economic pressures towards Afghanistan and should change its policy for it’s not a successful policy,” said Mujahid.
“People of Afghanistan want to be independent and they don’t want to be in conflict with any nation and they should be left to live the way they want and it would be for the interests of all nations.”
Mujahid has also said that the security, stability and economic prosperity of Afghanistan is for the benefit of all countries, including the United States, and in the same way, the insecurity, instability and weakening of the current government will have negative effects on the security and stability of all countries in the world.
He also noted that the new government of Afghanistan wants to be a reliable and positive member of the international community and live peacefully with other countries of the world.
According to him, the interaction of many countries in the region, including Arab countries, with the Islamic Emirate is official, but no announcement has yet been made.
He added that the Islamic Emirate stands by the commitments it has made to the world and implements all its commitments step by step and does not allow the security of any country to be threatened from Afghanistan.
Mujahid once again urged the Islamic countries to stand by the people of Afghanistan and establish diplomatic relations with Afghanistan and help the country develop economically.
The IEA’s spokesman has assured that the Islamic Emirate will create a responsive and responsible system, a system that will act responsibly towards the laws and accepted norms of the world.
Tajik authorities say their border guards clashed with militants who crossed into Tajikistan’s Khatlon region from Afghanistan on Tuesday night.
Tajikistan’s State Committee for National Security said in a statement that militants intended to carry out an armed attack on one of the border outposts.
Three militants were killed and two Tajik soldiers died in the clash. From the scene, three firearms—an M-16 rifle and a Kalashnikov assault rifle—three foreign-made pistols equipped with suppressors, ten hand grenades, one night-vision device, explosives, and other military equipment were seized, according to the committee.
This was the third reported attack from Afghanistan into Tajikistan in the past month, with the previous ones targeting Chinese nationals.
The Islamic Emirate previously said it assured Tajikistan it was ready to tighten border security and conduct joint investigations.

Afghanistan’s first aluminum can factory launched in Herat with $120 million investment
Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar, Deputy Prime Minister for Economic Affairs, laid the foundation stone of the “Pamir” aluminum can production company at the industrial parks of Herat on Thursday.
Afghanistan’s first aluminum can manufacturing plant was officially launched on Thursday in Herat province, marking a significant step toward industrial development and economic self-reliance.
Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar, Deputy Prime Minister for Economic Affairs, laid the foundation stone of the “Pamir” aluminum can production company at the industrial parks of Herat on Thursday.
According to officials, the Pamir factory is the first of its kind in Afghanistan and is being established with an investment of $120 million. The project will be built on 16 jeribs of land within Herat’s industrial zones.
Once completed, the factory is expected to create employment opportunities for around 1,700 Afghan citizens. Officials say the project will play a key role in boosting domestic production, reducing reliance on imports, and strengthening the national economy.
Authorities described the launch of the project as a clear sign of growing investment in the industrial sector and ongoing efforts to promote economic self-sufficiency in the country.

Medvedev: IEA posed less threat to Russia than western-backed groups
He added that such organisations have consistently pursued one objective: “to break apart the multiethnic people of Russia.”
Russia’s Deputy Chairman of the Security Council, Dmitry Medvedev, has said that the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan (IEA) caused less harm to Russia than Western-backed civic organisations that, he claims, sought to undermine the country’s unity.
In an article published in the Russian journal Rodina, Medvedev wrote that while the IEA had long been designated as a terrorist organisation, its actions did not inflict the same level of damage on Russia as what he described as Western-supported institutions operating under the banner of academic or humanitarian work.
“Let us be honest: the Taliban (IEA) movement, long listed as a terrorist organisation, has caused modern Russia far less damage than all those pseudo-scientific institutions whose aim is to dismantle our country under the guise of aiding the oppressed,” Medvedev stated.
He added that such organisations have consistently pursued one objective: “to break apart the multiethnic people of Russia.”
Medvedev’s remarks come amid a shift in Russia’s official stance toward Afghanistan. In April, Russia’s Supreme Court suspended the ban on the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan, which had previously been included on the country’s list of terrorist organisations.
