Afghanistan cannot be brought out of Indian influence as long as you have ANA and US there. Its simply naive to believe otherwise. The only way possible is when the taliban gets the share of power.

Yes that's why I said we need to do that. We have to work in the given conditions, not the optimum conditions.
We cant give India a free pass to do whatever it wants, cause we don't have the government of our choice in Afghanistan.

American are secretly negotiating safe exit with Taliban and after US exit we will see how much influence India left on Afghanistan.

No need to please Afghan traitors just let them fight with each other till Qayama since they are paying for their sins since they always bite the hand who feeds them.

Yes that's true that after US withdraws India wont have much influence left, but for the foreseeable future we need some kind of a working relationship. We cant just wait for the day US withdraws.
What effects Afghanistan effects Pakistan. That's why.

There is no other events repeating itself like what happens after a call or visit from US
Another tour by a Pakistani high delegation to appease and comfort anti-Paksitani and loser Afghans who are only able to hold territory they have with help of foreign occupation. A goody goody statement genrated, nothing shared with the press regarding what really was talked about. This diplomatic office of Pakistan has undermined Pakistan's image by their own meek actions.
PTI fools should understand this dance can't go on for a longtime.
Americans arm-twist Pakistan to cajole non-credible Afghan leadership and do their propaganda to hurt Pakistan image.
This shameful exercise is hurting Pakistan more.
A total overhaul is needed of the Foreign office.

Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi holds a meeting with his Afghan counterpart Salahuddin Rabbani.
Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi on Saturday reached Kabul to meet Afghan President Ashraf Ghani and other senior officials during his maiden trip to any country after assuming his new responsibilities.
In his one-on-one meeting with the Afghan president, bilateral relations as well as matters relating to regional peace and security were discussed, Radio Pakistan reported.
Qureshi also held delegation-level talks with the Afghan side during which a range of issues concerning bilateral relations came under discussion.
The foreign minister separately met his Afghan counterpart, Salahuddin Rabbani. Delegations of both sides were present during the meeting.
Qureshi was quoted as saying during the meeting that Pakistan and Afghanistan will have to make joint efforts to meet their challenges.
He stressed that there is a great potential to further bolster relations and cooperation between the two countries, according to Radio Pakistan.
In his remarks, the Afghan foreign minister said a peaceful environment in Pakistan and Afghanistan is vital for regional peace. He said his country desires cordial relations with all neighbouring countries, including Pakistan.
Earlier, Qureshi was received by Afghan military officials on his arrival in Kabul, according to a tweet by his party, the PTI.
"The talks are an important milestone in ushering an era of peace and regional stability and forming a partnership that will benefit both #Pakistan and Afghanistan," the tweet said.
Speaking to Dawn on Friday, Information Minister Fawad Chaudhry had said that Foreign Minister Qureshi's day-long visit to Kabul aimed at improving coordination between the two countries.
“The main purpose of the foreign minister’s visit is to improve coordination on security-related issues between the two countries,” he added.
To underscore the importance of the trip, he said it would be Qureshi’s first visit to Kabul (after becoming foreign minister) and it showed that Afghanistan was on top of Pakistan’s foreign policy.
On Sept 3, Afghan Foreign Minister Salahuddin Rabbani had phoned FM Qureshi to greet him on his appointment as foreign minister. He also extended him an invitation to visit Kabul.
Media reports earlier suggested that Qureshi would extend an invitation on behalf of Prime Minister Imran Khan to President Ghani to visit Pakistan.
Marked improvement in relations has been observed since Islamabad and Kabul agreed to operationalise the Afghanistan-Pakistan Action Plan for Peace and Solidarity (APAPPS) — the new bilateral ties framework that, according to the Foreign Office, provided the most comprehensive institutional mechanism to discuss all mutual issues.
During their phone conversation earlier this month, both Qureshi and his Afghan counterpart Rabbani agreed that the next round of APAPPS would soon be held in Islamabad.
Civil-military leadership discusses foreign policy, security challenges
Also on Friday, the country’s civil and military leadership sat together at PM Office to discuss foreign policy challenges.
Chief of Army Staff Gen Qamar Javed Bajwa, Inter-Services Intelligence director general Lt Gen Naveed Mukhtar, FM Qureshi, the foreign secretary and other senior officials were present at a high-level meeting chaired by PM Khan.
“Bilateral relations with certain friendly countries and issues relating to security came under discussion during the meeting,” said a brief statement issued after the meeting.
However, the information minister told Dawnthat the meeting discussed issues related to foreign policy and security. “The participants also discussed the strategy for the future visits of some foreign dignitaries,” he added.
Moreover, he said, the army chief also briefed the meeting about his last visit to Kabul.
Gen Bajwa had travelled to Kabul in June and held a one-on-one meeting with Afghan President Ghani.
Waste of time...

Even if you don't have usa or indian factor, still you cannot woo Afghanistan.
There are different breed of men.
But foreign office has to go by rules.
They have to show they are sincere and serious in solving afghan crisis. Otherwise lots of international pressure come on Pakistan. And these bastards along with their Indian counterparts lobby a lot against us and we have nothing to show the world as counter narrative.
When Ashraf ghani became president, he visited Pakistan first and he still made a point out of it that he extended the hand of friends ship which Pakistanis didn't accept blah blah. Same way now we can say pm Imran sends his foreign minister to 1st visit to Kabul to Solve their self inflicting woes.

One thing that may be kept in mind. These ministers are directly working on the payroll of USA. Their actions reflect USA's intentions towards Pakistan. If Pakistan needs to settle down something with Afghanistan that has to do with these bureaucrats than its better that we should contact the USA's administration layer just above these "Afghan" bureaucrats. This will serve our interests better.
