Afghanistan won’t be a battleground for rival powers: Muttaqi

Acting Foreign Minister Amir Khan Muttaqi has called on India and Pakistan to resolve their differences through dialogue. He also stressed that Afghanistan will not be a battlefield for rival powers.

Emirate will remain neutral in tensions between countries and wants positive competition and strong relations with countries through trade.

Our policy harms none, it’s balanced and independent,” he said.

On the visit by a US delegation to Kabul around a month ago, Muttaqi said that the visit opened a new chapter in US relations with Afghanistan.

He expressed hope that relations with the United States would gradually expand.

Muttaqi also called for “cruel” economic sanctions on Afghanistan to be lifted completely.
