Islamic Emirate Rejects Russian Claims of Security and Drug Threats

Zabihullah Mujahid, the spokesperson for the Islamic Emirate, stated that during the more than three years of the Islamic Emirate's governance in Afghanistan, no security threats or smuggling activities have targeted any country.

Mujahid rejected claims made by Russia’s representative to the Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO) regarding terrorism and drug-related threats from Afghanistan, labeling them as baseless.

Emphasizing that Afghanistan poses no harm to any country, the spokesperson said: "We reject these claims as false. Afghanistan is a safe country with a stable government, significant measures have been taken to prevent smuggling, and there are no security threats to any country. We hope there will be no propaganda, misinformation, or false narratives on this matter."

Previously, Russia’s permanent representative to the CSTO claimed that Central Asia faces "terrorism and drug-related threats" from Afghanistan.

According to a report by TASS news agency, the Russian official emphasized that the CSTO continues to monitor challenges and threats linked to Afghanistan and coordinates efforts to combat them through the working group on Afghanistan under the Council of Foreign Ministers.

"The CSTO continues to monitor challenges and threats linked to the Afghan issue, coordinating efforts to counter them through the capabilities of the CSTO's Working Group on Afghanistan under the Foreign Ministers' Council," said Viktor Vasiliev, Russia’s permanent representative to the CSTO.

"They want to ensure that the terrorist groups they created long ago are not used against them. Moreover, UN data and major countries have reported a 95% reduction in drug production in Afghanistan,” said Salim Paighir, a political analyst.

These concerns from a Russian official come after the Secretary of Russia's Security Council recently visited Kabul. During meetings with Islamic Emirate officials, he announced that Russia would soon remove the Islamic Emirate from its blacklist.
