The Islamic Emirate said that Azerbaijan has opened its embassy in Kabul and plans to send its diplomats to this country in the coming days.
The spokesperson of the Islamic Emirate calls on the international community to renew its diplomatic relations with the caretaker government.
“Azerbaijan has started its diplomatic relations with Afghanistan and has activated its embassy. The Islamic Emirate will also activate its embassy in Azerbaijan. This is a new step in diplomatic relations between the two countries and will be beneficial for all,” said Zabihullah Mujahid, the spokesperson for the Islamic Emirate.
“The countries of the region not only have political and economic competitions among themselves but are also concerned about their internal security because of Afghanistan,” said Aziz Maarij, a former Afghan diplomat.
Meanwhile, Ilham Mahmmadov, the Azerbaijani ambassador to Afghanistan, emphasized the expansion of comprehensive political and economic relations in separate meetings with deputy prime minister of the Islamic Emirate in political affairs and the acting Minister of Interior yesterday.
The Arg in a statement stated that during these meetings, Mawlawi Abdul Kabir supported Azerbaijan’s position on the Nagorno-Karabakh issue.
“The Azerbaijani ambassador stated that they have religious, economic, and cultural relations with Afghans and are trying to connect Afghanistan’s trade with Europe,” said Hassan Haqyar, head of the media directorate of the political deputy PM.
Although the issue of the recognition of the Islamic Emirate remains unclear, the number of the Islamic Emirate’s political representations in countries has reached 38, and representatives of the Islamic Emirate also have a diplomatic presence in some countries.
