A number of news outlets have recently reported that some foreign troops could stay behind in our homeland in the role of securing airports and embassies. The following points are noteworthy in this regard:

– The Islamic Emirate wants to maintain positive and beneficial relations with the world, regional and neighboring countries.

– Our country has been facing a multitude of issues and problems for the past four decades and on this basis, is in need of the selfless and humanitarian assistance of international, sympathetic and friendly nations. We seek such for our people and welcome it.

– The presence of foreign forces under whatever name or by whichever country in our homeland is unacceptable for the Afghan people and the Islamic Emirate.

– Every inch of Afghan soil, its airports and security of foreign embassies and diplomatic offices is the responsibility of the Afghans, consequently no one should hold out hope of keeping military or security presence in our country, nor should steps be taken that could strain relations between peoples and countries.

– If anyone does make such a mistake, the Afghan people and the Islamic Emirate shall view them as occupiers and shall take a stance against them as they have taken against invaders throughout history, the responsibility in which case shall also fall on their shoulders.

New statement from the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan: “Regarding the Evacuation of Interpreters For Foreign Forces from Afghanistan”

As a large number of Afghans were misled during the previous twenty-year occupation period and worked alongside foreign forces as interpreters, guards and under other titles, and now as foreign forces are withdrawing from Afghanistan, these Afghans also seek to flee the country and are fearful.

The Islamic Emirate would like to inform all the above people that they should show remorse for their past actions and must not engage in such activities in the future that amount to treason against Islam and the country.

But none should currently desert the country. The Islamic Emirate will not perturb them, but calls them to return to their normal lives and if they do have expertise in any field, to serve their country. They shall not be in any danger on our part.

We viewed them as our foes when they were directly standing in the ranks of our enemies, but when they abandon enemy ranks and opt to live as ordinary Afghans in their homeland, they will not face any issues hence they should not remain fearful and should continue living a serene life in their own country. However, if they are using “danger” as an excuse to bolster their fake asylum case, then that is their own problem and not that of the Mujahideen of Islamic Emirate.
