NATO’s new Senior Civilian Representative to Afghanistan Stefano Pontecorvo in his first address to the country, urged the Afghan government to initiate the intra-Afghan peace negotiations at the earliest.


“At the time of tremendous opportunity for peace, together we have to keep focused on our highest priority: the earliest possible start of intra-Afghan negotiations,” said Pontecorvo in his video address.

He reassured that Afghanistan will have international support to preserve achievements they had made over the last two decades.

“NATO and its partners are committed to supporting Afghanistan, the Afghan security forces and the Afghan people’s demands for a more secure and peaceful country.”

“A stable Afghanistan, free from terrorism, is what the Afghan people deserve and the world expects,” he ended.

The Italian ambassador arrived in Kabul on June 1 and will be working with the NATO-led Resolute Support mission.
