ISLAMABAD: As the end game nears in Afghanistan and President Hamid Karzai is left no choice but to step down, Pakistan clearly warned Kabul that the negative statements from Afghan leadership and officials tend to vitiate the atmosphere and constrain development of close and cooperative ties between the two countries.
Kabul appears to be in an overdrive to focus its energies on voicing rhetoric against Pakistan at a time when Islamabad has graciously allowed millions of Afghan refugees to overstay instead of returning home.
At a time when all institutions in Pakistan appear to be on the same page on its Afghan policy and without compromising its own national interests, Pakistan is playing a part in peace and reconciliation efforts, the accusations from Kabul do not cease. Pakistan has rejected as completely baseless the comments and ideas attributed to it by Afghan officials relating to alleged power-sharing formula with the Taliban or attempting to bring fiefdoms to Afghanistan. This is a fabrication as no such notions have been expressed by any Pakistani official, spokesman at the Foreign Office said in a statement.
Pakistan says it is refraining from encouraging any fissiparous tendencies.
Pakistan has always supported a peaceful, stable and united Afghanistan. We are playing a constructive and positive role to facilitate an Afghan-led and Afghan-owned reconciliation process. In his telephone conversations with President Karzai since taking office last month, Prime Minister Muhammad Nawaz Sharif has reaffirmed Pakistans commitment to support the efforts for peace and stability in Afghanistan and the region, added the spokesman.
Instead, Islamabad has asked Kabul to reciprocate its constructive efforts, refrain from attributing misleading ideas to us, and work together for sustainable peace and stability that is so vitally important for progress and prosperity of the two countries and the region.
