On 5th of February 2019, a conference will be held about Afghanistan in the city of Moscow, Russia.

The Islamic Emirate was also invited to this conference and a ten-man delegation led by the respected Sher Muhammad Abbas Stanekzai will be participating in it.

The agenda of this conference is holding discussions about the issue of Afghanistan, declaration of policies and opening channels to reaching an understanding with non-government Afghan political groups.

The Islamic Emirate wants to appropriately utilize this opportunity to clarify its Shariah-based and ethical stance to various parties and explain its policy and mechanism about future Afghanistan vis-à-vis end of occupation, enduring peace in homeland and establishment of an intra-Afghan Islamic system of governance.
