Pakistan's stance: Improvement of relations with Kabul depends on Taliban's actions
Pakistan's military leadership has made it clear that the responsibility for improving relations with Afghanistan lies with the Afghan Taliban. Officials say that a solution to the long-standing issues between the two countries is only possible when the Kabul administration prevents its soil from being used against Pakistan.
Pakistan has completely rejected the possibility of any kind of negotiations with the banned Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP). According to military officials, there is no justification for talks with groups that challenge the writ of the state, and operations against terrorism will continue without discrimination.
The Afghan Taliban have been urged to take concrete steps against terrorist networks present on their soil. Pakistan believes that the elimination of cross-border terrorism is inevitable for peace and stability in the region, for which the cooperation of the Afghan government is extremely necessary.
In the context of this situation, Pakistan is committed to the security of its borders. Officials say that Pakistan's top priority is the protection of its citizens and the establishment of peace and order in the country, which will not be compromised in any way.
In the future, Pak-Afghan relations will depend on the practical steps taken by Kabul. Pakistan hopes that the Afghan government will adopt a responsible attitude in the interest of the region so that tensions between the two neighboring countries can be reduced.
