Afghanistan slams Pakistan for 'reckless' statements over Kashmir issue

Op India  

Afghanistan has officially rebuked Pakistan for linking the current situation in Kashmir with the situation in Afghanistan. In a lengthy statement, Roya Rahmani, the Afghan Ambassador to the US, said on Sunday: “The Islamic Republic of Afghanistan strongly questions the assertion made by Pakistan’s ambassador to the United States, Asad Majeed Khan, that the ongoing tensions in Kashmir could potentially affect Afghanistan’s peace process.” Struggling to draw attention to the Kashmir issue, Pakistan had linked it to Afghanistan imbroglio, warning that it might have to redeploy troops from the Afghanistan border to that of Kashmir. Rahmani said the assertion by the Pakistani Ambassador that the Kashmir issue could compel Pakistan to reposition its troops from its western frontier with Afghanistan to its eastern border with India is “a misleading statement which inaccurately suggests that Afghanistan poses a threat” to Pakistan. The Afghan diplomat further asserted that Kashmir is a bilateral issue between India and Pakistan and by linking it to the Afghan peace efforts the Imran Khan government is deliberately attempting to further instigate violence in the trouble-torn nation and is using it an excuse to justify its inaction against Taliban and to avoid taking a decisive stance against the militant group. Slamming Pakistan, Rahmani said the statement by her Pakistani counterpart runs contrary to the positive and constructive engagement Afghan President Ashraf Ghani had with Prime Minister Imran Khan and Pakistan Army Chief General Qamar Javed Bajwa on his recent visit to the country.
