Amidst reports about the Trump administration’s bid for an early pullout of its forces from Afghanistan, a senior Iranian official has said that Iran favors a responsible withdrawal of American forces from Afghanistan and sees it as a violation of Afghan national interests if the country is abandoned to an opposition group.

In an interview published on Iran’s Etemad newspaper on Nov. 14, Iran Foreign Ministry’s Director-General for West Asia Rasoul Mousavi said that negotiations with the Taliban are a need but stressed that Tehran supports the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan system compared with an Islamic emirate.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MoFA) in a statement on Sunday rejected the claims by the Pakistani military about the use of Afghan soil against Pakistan as baseless and said the top priority for Afghanistan’s foreign policy is to become the center of cooperation for fighting terrorism. 

The ministry said Afghanistan has been the main victim of terrorism in the world.
