The Islamic Emirate considers the concern of some countries at the meeting of the National Security Advisors of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization to be interpreted.
The deputy spokesperson of Afghanistan’s ruling government Hamdullah Fetrat denied the presence of terrorist groups in the country and adds that they have undertaken a serious fight against terrorist groups.
He said, “Some countries claim that there are terrorist groups in Afghanistan and it is a threat, but the Islamic Emirate is committed to fighting terrorist groups and does not allow its territory to be used against any country.”
In the 19th meeting of the National Security Advisors of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization, some countries including India, Russia, and Kazakhstan expressed their concerns about the presence of terrorist groups and their threats from Afghanistan to the countries in the region.
The Russian news agency TASS, quoting the National Security Advisor of Russia, wrote that these countries have asked the Taliban to fulfill their commitments in the fight against terrorist groups.
“The heads of delegations called on the de facto authorities of Afghanistan to consistently fulfill their obligations in the field of counter terrorism, especially in preventing the activities of international terrorist organizations and other groups based on Afghan soil that pose a serious threat to the SCO space,” Nikolai Patrushev said.
