The leader of Pakistan’s Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam, Maulana Fazl-ur-Rehman, said that they are trying to solve the problems between Afghanistan and Pakistan through understanding.
Fazl-ur-Rehman said that he met with all officials of the Islamic Emirate and discussed various issues.
“We try to resolve all issues between Pakistan and Afghanistan through understanding, so that the deals of those powers that want both countries to be against each other, to be at war, and their relations to deteriorate, fail,” he said in an interview with RTA Pashto.
He also referred to the formal recognition of the Islamic Emirate, saying that the presence of the embassies of other countries in Afghanistan is a sign of recognition of the interim Afghan government.
He also called on the world countries to recognize the Afghan government.
“We attempt to solve the issues between Afghanistan and Pakistan through understanding, so that we foil the plots of those powers who want to face the two countries against each other,” said Fazl-ur-Rehman.
The political analysts meanwhile called for the improvements of relations between Kabul and Islamabad.
“Pakistanis think that Afghanistan is isolated and that Afghanistan is not a calm country and that the Taliban are sidelined, so that they can both leverage the Taliban and also defame the Taliban to the international community,” said Abdul Wahid Faqiri, a political analyst.
“The Pakistani government should have understood now that engagement with Afghanistan and having good relations is important for peace and stability of the two countries,” said Najib Rahman Shamal, a political analyst.
Fazl-ur-Rehman said that the Islamic Emirate and Pakistan should hold negotiations to solve the issue of the refugees.
He also said that he has advised the Pakistani government regarding the issue of the Afghan refugees.
