According to the ambassador, Iran and Pakistan as Afghanistan’s two main neighbors, want good things for the people of Afghanistan and understand the endless suffering of Afghans. Both countries have common and close stances on the Afghan peace talks and believe that the peace talks should be concluded and implemented without foreign interference and with the participation of all Afghan groups.

“Tehran and Islamabad oppose any military solutions to the crisis in Afghanistan and emphasize the formation of an inclusive and national government “, he said.

On the visit, he said, “During Qureshi’s visit to Tehran, in addition to examining a wide range of regional issues and developments in Afghanistan, progress in bilateral cooperation, trade and strengthening border relations between the two countries will be discussed.”
