Pakistan called on the international community to “speak with one voice” in order to hold the Taliban to their commitments, including not to allow the use of Afghan soil against any country and to ensure the shared goal of a stable and prosperous Afghanistan free from terrorism.
“We continue to see attempts by TTP (Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan) terrorists to infiltrate into Pakistan from Afghanistan,” Ambassador Asim Iftikhar Ahmad, permanent representative of Pakistan to the United Nations, told the UN General Assembly, which also adopted a resolution calling on the Taliban to uphold human rights, adhere to international law and take decisive action against terrorism, amid a worsening humanitarian crisis.
Speaking in a debate on the situation in Afghanistan, the Pakistani envoy said, “We also have credible evidence of collaboration between the TTP and other groups, such as the BLA (Balochistan Liberation Army) and its Majeed Brigade, aimed at disrupting strategic infrastructure and economic development projects in Pakistan.”
