Pakistan reaffirms commitment to continue support for Afghan peace

F.P. Report

ISLAMABAD: Pakistan has reaffirmed commitment to continue support for peaceful, stable, united, and democratic Afghanistan, which is indispensable for peace and stability in the region and beyond.

In a press release issued on Sunday, Foreign Office Spokesperson Aisha Farooqui termed U.S-Taliban peace agreement signed in February this year a significant step forward, creating a historic opportunity for the move towards intra-Afghan negotiations.

She said Pakistan believes that the pursuit of sustained reduction in violence by all concerned parties is pivotal in advancing the cause of peace and stability in Afghanistan. The unprecedented challenges posed by Covid-19 and the advent of the holy month of Ramzan further underscore the imperative of creating a conducive environment.

The statement also underlined the importance of political reconciliation among all Afghan parties and stakeholders.

The Spokesperson said an inclusive political dispensation would indeed help fortify the efforts that the Afghan nation needs at this critical time to effectively confront the challenges it faces.
