(TTP) is not present in the territory of Afghanistan/Islamabad should look for its enemy in its territory

Afghan Voice Agency (AVA) - Kabul: Fasihuddin Fitrah, the Chief of Staff of the Armed Forces of the Islamic Emirate, said in an interview with Ariana News that Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) is not present in Afghanistan and Islamabad should look for its enemy in its own territory.

 

The Chief of the Armed Forces of the Islamic Emirate added: Those who want to question the commitments of the Islamic Emirate and resort to force, the caretaker government will respond in kind.

 

Mr. Fitrat has said in this regard: "With various excuses, those who want to question the commitments of the Islamic Emirate again and resort to force, what is our action and our response?" We proved this to the world and the world knows it."

 

On the other hand, Mr. Fitrat emphasized that outsiders magnify the presence of ISIS in Afghanistan, while this phenomenon does not have a front in Afghanistan and is always suppressed.

 

In response to the concern of the countries, especially the neighbors, that Afghanistan's soil is not used against others, the Chief of Staff said that security is currently ensured in Afghanistan, and the Islamic Emirate has proven this in practice in the past two years.

 

He said: "In Afghanistan, ISIS does not exist and does not exist in Afghanistan in the form of which geography it has, which foreign presence, which region it exists."

 

The Chief of Staff of the Armed Forces has also noted that the Ministry of Defense wants to increase the number of the Islamic Army from 150,000 to more than 180,000 in the current solar year.

 

In addition, Lieutenant General said in this interview that the military path was taken against the so-called resistance front when the negotiations between the delegation of this front and the caretaker government were deadlocked and the forces of the Islamic Emirate were killed in Andrabs.

 

He added that the Resistance Front emphasized on power sharing and 50% share in the government, which was not acceptable for the Islamic Emirate.

 

Meanwhile, Pakistan has always accused the Islamic Emirate of sheltering the Pakistani Taliban and claimed that they are organizing operations against Pakistan from Afghanistan.
