The new Chinese ambassador to Afghanistan handed over his credentials to the Prime Minister of Afghanistan in an official ceremony. This is the first time after the new government took over the whole of Afghanistan that an ambassador hands over his credentials in an official ceremony. Although the acting government has not recognized any country yet, China has become the first country to take such a step. Takes
It is clear that this step by China is not recognition of the new government, but several points are important in this regard:
First: It was said that the United States not only does not recognize its caretaker government, but also does not allow other countries to recognize the caretaker government, and the United States also sets the limits of interaction with the government. China became the first country to break the boundaries of America and do something that is a step towards recognition. This measure shows that the US cannot force all other countries to work as they wish, and besides, other countries are also encouraged to increase interaction with the Afghan caretaker government and move towards formality. China dared to do this and now it is the turn of other countries to break the boundaries set by America.
Second: This step by China has another important aspect and that is that the political instability and insecurity in Pakistan has increased the importance of Afghanistan. Despite extensive efforts in Pakistan, due to US interference, political instability and insecurity, the economic corridor between Pakistan and China is not progressing as expected. Now there are many obstacles in front of the economic corridor between China and Pakistan, so China will also think that by making relations with Afghanistan closer, in the future, they will work on this way from the countries of the region. Try to connect.
Third: Now it is necessary for China to take other steps. For a long time, China and Chinese businessmen and companies have been making promises to invest in Afghanistan, but there is not much in practice. Logar Mes Ayank Mine agreement was signed in 2008, but the practical work has not yet been completed. Now is the time for the Chinese to start practical work, move from promises to action, and in this way, bilateral relations will continue. Become more powerful.
Fourth: This step is also a green light for the Afghan caretaker government, which can move towards interaction and formality, but it is important for the government to do some things; Implement the promises made to the international community and the people of Afghanistan, adopt moderate politics, take steps towards good relations with all the countries of the region and the world, including all our neighbors, listen to the voice of the people, in the government. Make the changes they promised before 2021. Make a constitution and other laws, define your system, solve the problem of women’s education and give people other legitimate rights. This measure will not only strengthen the Afghan caretaker government domestically, but it will also make it easier for other countries to interact and recognize the government.
