INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
The Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan said in response to the UN Security Council&s meeting on Afghanistan on Tuesday that discussions and
opinions delivered by member states failed to focus on important issues and instead focused on two &minor& domestic topics & women&s
education and employment.In a statement issued early Wednesday, the IEA&s spokesman Zabiullah Mujahid, stated that the issue of general
security in Afghanistan, the general amnesty, peace and stability, economic development, formation of security forces, preparation of
budgets from internal revenue, and the handover of the UN seat to the IEA should have been the focus of discussions.&The fact that there was
no mention of this, because the pressure and imposition were focused on politics, shows that the selfish circles are still at war with us
and they have also taken the United Nations organization hostage and are using it against us,& read the statement.Mujahid said that the
people of Afghanistan recognize their system and emirate, trust their leaders and strongly support their system.&The people of Afghanistan
have a priority to teach their religion and the national interests of their country are important to them,& Mujahid said, adding that &for
these great goals, they have sacrificed youths and will take care and protect them.&This comes after the UN special representative for
Afghanistan Roza Otunbayeva told the council that the international community must continue to engage with IEA leaders in Afghanistan
despite deep disagreement with their approach to women&s rights and inclusive governance.She also said however that &the lack of trust on
all sides is a serious impediment to building confidence but the doors to dialogue are still open.&The post IEA accuses ‘selfish circles&
of taking UN ‘hostage& over Afghanistan situation first appeared on Ariana News.
