Khalifa Sirajuddin Haqqani, the Acting Minister of Interior, expressed a desire to expand relations with the world during a meeting with a Malaysian delegation.
Haqqani assured the delegation of the security situation across the country.
Abdul Mateen Qani, the spokesperson for the Ministry of Interior, said: “We seek good relations and interaction with all countries of the world, especially the Islamic world. Malaysia is one of the developed Islamic countries with which we share many commonalities; we should cooperate with each other.”
Mawlawi Mohammad Yaqoob Mujahid, the acting Minister of Defense, also assured the delegation that Daesh no longer physically exists in Afghanistan and that the Islamic Emirate will not allow Afghan soil to be used against other countries.
A military expert said: “So far, the Islamic Emirate has maintained its balance in its foreign policy and preserved its independence; however, apart from China, other countries have not yet engaged formally with the Islamic Emirate, and we are waiting for this issue to be better resolved.”
Kamran Aman, a military affairs expert, said, “We do not protect anyone else’s borders but our own in both cases when someone comes or goes, and this is our duty.”
Previously, the Malaysian delegation, during a meeting with the acting minister of Foreign Affairs and the deputy prime minister for political affairs, Mawlawi Abdul Kabir, stated that the purpose of their visit to Kabul was to expand Malaysia's relations with the Islamic Emirate, and they pledged to make efforts toward enhancing the Islamic Emirate's interactions with the world.
