ISLAMABAD, September 4: Afghan Taliban condemning supply of the Indian military aid to the Kabul administration called on India on Sunday to stop exporting items of killing and destruction to Afghanistan and to stop efforts of prolonging the lifespan of this corrupt regime with its military aid.
“Providing the Kabul administration with such deadly weapons cannot be interpreted as friendship with the people of our country but as support for a criminal foreign backed group and clear hostility towards our people, the Taliban said.
The Islamic Emirate condemns this action with the strongest of terms. Such acts will create distrust between the people of both countries and become a reason for further deterioration of relationship, the group’s spokesman, Zabihullah Mujahid, said in a statement.
If anyone wishes to strengthen the Kabul stooge administration with military aid during occupation, this cannot be interpreted as anything other than enmity with the Afghans and shall arouse hatred of the people of Afghanistan.
Mujahid said the key Puli Alchin bridge in Kunduz recently destroyed by the regime’s helicopters that were provided by the Indian government. He also referred to the reports circulating in the media that India will be providing military aid to the Kabul administration in form of aircraft and other equipment.
This is the several time that India is giving the stooge Kabul administration military aid and it is an obvious fact that such weapons will be used to kill our people, oppress our nation and destroy
our homes and public welfare structures, the Taliban spokesman said. Mujahid reminded India that the people of Afghanistan have not proved detrimental to nor interfered in the internal affairs of others and they seek a reciprocal treatment towards the Afghans from other countries. Afghan media says the Afghan National Army Chief of Staff General Qadam Shah Shaheem visited India last month to meet with the country’s defense officials to discuss more military aid to Afghanistan. – NNI
