Seyyed Abbas Araqchi, the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Islamic Republic of Iran, emphasized Iran’s active role in reducing tensions in a phone call with Amir Khan Mottaki. However, political analysts also say that “given that the second round of talks between Afghanistan and Pakistan in Turkey failed, the Islamic Republic of Iran, as a powerful neighboring country that has good relations with the governments of Afghanistan and Pakistan, can certainly play a constructive role as a good mediator.”

Afghan Voice Agency (AVA) - Kabul: After the impasse of the second round of talks between Afghanistan and Pakistan in Turkey, verbal tensions between the two sides have increased again and political relations remain in a state of uncertainty. According to many experts, the failure of talks in these sensitive circumstances is not a good sign in the relations between the two countries and may lead to military clashes again.
This is while Iranian Foreign Minister Seyyed Abbas Araqchi, in a conversation with Amir Khan Mottaqi, has suggested that Tehran can play an active role in reducing tensions between the Islamic Emirate and Pakistan.
The Islamic Emirate has also said that Iran has expressed its readiness to facilitate talks between the two sides. According to Mottaqi, the Islamic Emirate prefers a diplomatic solution to other solutions.
The recent contact took place while Seyyed Abbas Araqchi had previously contacted Pakistani officials and called for continuing talks with the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan.
On the other hand, Esmail Baghaei, spokesman for the Iranian Foreign Ministry, announced yesterday that Iran is concerned about any tension on its eastern borders; Not only because of its proximity to Pakistan and Afghanistan, but also because these two Muslim countries have long-standing historical, religious and cultural ties with Iran.
He added that any insecurity on the eastern borders could affect the security of the entire region, and for this reason, the Islamic Republic of Iran has called on both sides to exercise restraint since the beginning of the tension between the two countries.
Political affairs expert Sayed Mohsen Hosseini said in an interview with AVA that "given that the second round of Afghanistan-Pakistan talks in Turkey failed, the Islamic Republic of Iran, as a powerful neighboring country that has good relations with the governments of Afghanistan and Pakistan, can certainly play a constructive role in reducing tensions as a good mediator."
According to him, "Although the negotiating delegation of the Islamic Emirate has always gone to Qatar and Turkey with good intentions, Pakistan has created obstacles every time, which ultimately led to a deadlock in the talks."
According to Mr. Hosseini, “The selected locations for negotiations such as Qatar and Turkey are noteworthy, but these efforts could not overcome Pakistan’s excessive demands and each time the negotiations ended inconclusively.”
He expressed hope that “Iran, as a neighboring country whose security and stability largely depend on the stability of Afghanistan and Pakistan, can play an important and constructive role in reducing the conflicts between the two countries.”
He emphasized that “peace and stability in Afghanistan are in the interest of all neighboring countries, especially Iran, and it is the duty of neighboring countries and the region to have a positive view of Afghanistan. Pakistan should also stop being stubborn and interfering in Afghanistan’s internal affairs and, as a neighboring country with long shared borders, think more about the future of the relations between the two countries.”
Afghanistan-Pakistan negotiations fail for the second time; A reference to the role of colonialism
Meanwhile, political analyst Sediq Mansoor Ansari, in an interview with Ava, also appreciated Iran's announcement of its readiness to mediate and said that "unfortunately, based on the sinister role of the Punjabi armed establishment, at the behest and leadership of colonialism, the negotiations between Afghanistan and Pakistan in Turkey have failed for the second time."
According to Ansari, "The fact that small groups of British and American puppets, with their military and intelligence power, have disrupted the entire nation and even the political elite of Pakistan and do not always adhere to any of the Islamic principles and laws, international conventions, principles of neighborliness, and human coexistence relations, shows that Iran's efforts, like those of Turkey and Qatar, will not be very fruitful."
According to Mr. Ansari, “The Punjabi establishment, which is a remnant of the Punjab Regiment of the British forces, benefited from the usurped lands and resources of its neighbors to maintain its survival after the defeat of the British in the region and has been in conflict with all its neighbors until now.”
He emphasized that “from the very beginning of its establishment, the Pakistani establishment has been planned based on old British theories and conspiracies; plans that include proxy wars, terrorist projects, the killing of innocent people and political, scientific and ethnic leaders on both sides of the Durand Line, the destruction of villages, towns and cities and infrastructure of Afghanistan, and carrying out covert attacks and wars against the people within the current geography of Pakistan and neighboring countries such as Afghanistan, Iran and India.”
