The deputy minister of foreign affairs for political affairs, Sher Mohammad Abbas Stanekzai, at a gathering on Sunday said the United States shouldn’t intrude in Afghanistan’s internal affairs as it’s an independent country and it’s making opinions singly.
Pointing out to the unforeseen pullout of US forces from Bagram Airfield in August, Stanikzai said “ American dogfaces fled from Afghanistan in the dark of the night.”
He said that the country is independent now and that the last four months have been the first time in four decades for Afghanistan in which Afghans are making their opinions singly.
“ The adversaries,” he said, shouldn’t suppose that Afghanistan is weakened by 40 times of war as it has the capability to fight another 40 times if it has to.
The deputy foreign minister conceded that hundreds of Afghans are leaving the country to Iran on a diurnal basis over profitable problems and that utmost of them fail to cross the border or lose their lives on the way to the neighboring country.
