Foes don’t want amity among regional states: Ahmadinejad tells Afghan president vvv
TEHRAN, Oct.12(MNA) – Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, during a telephone conversation with Afghan President Hamid Karzai late on Monday, said that the enemies do not want friendship and brotherhood to prevail in the region.
During the conversation, Ahmadinejad once again offered his condolences to the Afghan nation and government over the martyrdom of former Afghan president Burhanuddin Rabbani, who was assassinated inside his home in Kabul on September 20.
“Rabbani’s assassination indicated that the enemies never want an atmosphere of calm to pervade in the region,” Ahmadinejad stated.
“The enemies committed a great crime by assassinating this faithful and conscientious person,” he said, adding, “We should help soothe the hurt feelings of the Afghan nation.”
Elsewhere in his remarks, the Iranian president called on regional nations to be vigilant about the enemies’ plots and help create an atmosphere of understanding among regional countries.
He went on to say that holding regular negotiations between Iranian, Afghan, and Pakistani officials will help achieve this goal.
Karzai thanked the Islamic Republic of Iran for providing moral support to the Afghan people in hard times.
He also said, “Afghanistan always supports long-lasting peace and security in the region because it believes that it is in the interests of regional countries, and (holding) trilateral meetings between Iran, Afghanistan, and Pakistan is an important issue,” which would help strengthen friendship among these countries.
