attach importance to developing relations with all neighboring countries, including Pakistan.

We are glad and happy for what Pakistan is now doing on their territory to chase terrorists and to arrest them,

We as the Afghan people and government are willing to help Pakistan work for peace in Afghanistan and work for peace in Pakistan, together.

We attach particular importance to the interaction between Pakistan, an observer country for now, and the SCO.

People in Afghanistan want peace, including the Taliban. They're also people like we all are. They have families, they have relatives, they have children, they are suffering a tough time.

I attach a lot of importance to these talks.
