Pakistan’s Foreign Ministry spokesperson, Tahir Andrabi, has officially stated that Islamabad respects Afghanistan’s sovereignty and territorial integrity.
Speaking at a press conference, he denied allegations that Pakistan seeks a regime change in Kabul.
Andrabi emphasized that the choice of government belongs to the Afghan people and expressed readiness to cooperate with the current Taliban administration.
This statement appears to be a diplomatic olive branch amidst rising tensions.
While the rhetoric is conciliatory, underlying issues regarding security and cross-border militancy persist. Observers view this as a move to de-escalate recent verbal hostilities while maintaining diplomatic channels.
