A meeting on Afghanistan between the secretaries of the security councils of Central Asian countries, Pakistan, India and China will be held in Moscow next week, Russia’s special envoy for Afghanistan, Zamir Kabulov, told TASS on Friday.
“There will be regional participants, the secretaries of the security councils of countries in the region are invited – our Central Asian partners, as well as Pakistan, India and China,” the diplomat said.
On May 27, 2022, a fourth round of multilateral consultations on Afghanistan between top security officials was held in Tajikistan capital Dushanbe.
Russia’s plan to host next security meeting on Afghanistan comes as the country has always expressed concern about the presence of Daesh in Afghanistan.
About two weeks ago, Kabulov stated that the presence of Daesh in Afghanistan is not only against the stability of Central Asian countries and other neighboring countries of Afghanistan, but also against the security of Russia.
However, the Islamic Emirate has repeatedly assured that Afghanistan’s soil will not be used against the security of other countries.
