IEA is part of today’s reality in Afghanistan: Iran’s FM
Iran's Foreign Minister Hossein Amir Abdollahian says the Islamic Emirate is not “Daesh”, but is part of today's reality in Afghanistan.
Speaking at a conference, Amir Abdollahian said that the IEA is currently fighting against the Daesh group, but it does not mean that it will not form an inclusive government.
He emphasized that the only solution in Afghanistan is to establish a comprehensive government and that Tehran should work for more security and stability in Afghanistan.
The head of Iran's diplomatic system also added that Afghanistan can be on the path of stability and security when all ethnic groups have a role in the administration and governance of this country.
IEA’s spokesman meanwhile said that the ruling system in Afghanistan is inclusive and all ethnic groups see themselves in the mirror of the government and this process is moving towards completion.
Mujahid stressed that security in Afghanistan is an important issue for the Islamic Emirate because providing security in Afghanistan helps the stability of the region and neighboring countries.

The U.S. House Of Representatives has passed a legislation on evacuation of Afghans who assisted Americans during the 20-year war in Afghanistan.
“The passage of the CARE Authorization Act of 2024 further underscores the commitment made by the U.S. government to safeguard those who served shoulder-to-shoulder with our personnel during the twenty-year mission in Afghanistan,” Congresswoman Dina Titus said in a statement.
“The State Department has made it clear: There is no deadline for the crucial job of protecting Afghan allies. By authorizing the Coordinator for Afghan Relocation Efforts at the State Department, we can more effectively relocate and resettle those who have qualified to immigrate to the U.S. as a result of their service to this country.”
In 2022 the State Department established a specialized office called the Coordinator for Afghan Relocation Efforts (CARE) to streamline and coordinate the ongoing relocation and resettlement process for eligible Afghans from Afghanistan and Pakistan to the United States.
The CARE Authorization Act of 2024 will formally authorize the CARE office at the State Department for three years and grant important authorities to advance its mission. These include an extension of authorities to enter into personal services contracts as well as measures to streamline the transfer of funds to and from other agencies involved in the Afghan relocation mission.
