[00:01:04] Five years, five years full of transformations and challenges, but at the same time with [00:01:08] achievements in various sectors, from the expansion of regional relations [00:01:11] and trade growth to ensuring security and the return of [00:01:15] millions of immigrants. During this period, Afghanistan has witnessed significant [00:01:18] changes and transformations in various fields. [00:01:21] Tonight, in the special news service, we will review the five-year [00:01:25] record of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan. [00:01:27] کنیم. [00:02:37] of Balkh, Paktia, and Laghman. Five years ago, on [00:02:40] such a day, the Mujahideen raised the flag of the Islamic Emirate in these provinces. [00:02:44] به اعتراض درآوردند. [00:02:55] In Balkh province, the first district to be conquered [00:02:56] was the district of [00:04:00] Milinews adds that Kabul is ready to resolve disputes with [00:04:03] Pakistan through dialogue, but also has defensive readiness [00:04:07] against aggression. He announced the number of Afghan army [00:04:10] forces to be around 150 thousand and said that this [00:04:14] number will increase in the future. Mr. Mujahid also announced [00:04:18] military and technical agreements with Russia for the repair, modernization, and [00:04:22] development of Afghanistan's military equipment. [00:04:25] Jahed Hakimi reports. [00:04:28] August 24. [00:05:00] Pakistan says Kabul has left the door open for dialogue, [00:05:03] but if the aggression continues, Afghanistan's response [00:05:06] will be deliberate and calculated. [00:05:09] بود. [00:06:12] capable and to ensure lasting security in Afghanistan. [00:06:16] است. [00:06:27] relations with Pakistan, strengthening defensive [00:06:30] capabilities, technical and military cooperation with Russia, [00:06:34] increasing army capacity, and preserving independence were among the most important [00:06:37] topics of discussion for the Afghan Minister of Defense. [00:06:40] بود. [00:06:44] says that Afghanistan, based on its independent and balanced [00:06:47] policy, desires good relations with all countries and adds [00:06:51] that it will never stand with one country against another. [00:06:54] Mr. Muttaqi, in his latest interview with the BBC, said that [00:06:58] the Islamic Emirate has made significant progress in various sectors [00:07:02] over the past five years. However, the world has ignored [00:07:05] these achievements. [00:07:08] Afghanistan now has an independent [00:07:11] policy. It is not under the [00:07:15] influence of other countries. Mawlawi Amir Khan Muttaqi, the Minister of Foreign Affairs [00:07:19] of the Islamic Emirate, in his latest interview with the BBC about the [00:07:22] internal situation, relations, and interaction with the international community, and [00:07:26] recognition and economic recovery, said that the people are fully satisfied [00:07:30] with the Islamic Emirate and that the Islamic Emirate enjoys popular support [00:07:33] throughout the country. The Soviet Union, with all its strength, [00:07:37] came and when the people were unhappy, it did nothing. America and [00:07:41] NATO, with all their strength, [00:08:28] as a government, it has completed all the necessary requirements for recognition, [00:08:32] and there are no conditions that Afghanistan has failed [00:08:35] to meet. The first round [00:08:38] of these thirty countries recognized [00:08:41] the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan. But the relations [00:08:45] we have today with the countries [00:08:47] of the region and the countries of the world [00:08:50] are much, much [00:08:53] higher than they were then. But praise be to God, we have [00:08:56] more than [00:08:59] 40 active diplomatic missions, [00:09:02] embassies and consulates. Our trade [00:09:06] with any country we want to trade with has not faced any problems, [00:09:09] praise be to God. [00:09:42] is experiencing positive growth, and added that during this period, in addition [00:09:46] to finding alternative routes, domestic production has also grown, [00:09:50] and the number of domestic products has increased from 38 [00:09:54] items to 200 items. In fact, [00:09:56] whenever roads have been closed, they have been closed by Pakistan, [00:10:00] not by us. [00:10:04] And when we say that the economy has improved, it is true that in [00:10:07] some sectors we have problems, [00:10:11] but we say that, for example, we have almost 6.5 [00:10:14] to 7 thousand factories [00:10:17] that employ hundreds of thousands of people. [00:10:47] Kabul is expanding its political and economic interactions [00:10:51] with various countries. [00:13:55] For Afghanistan, [00:13:58] the Mujahideen made such a sacrifice for 20 years [00:14:02] that is seen in the history of the world. [00:19:07] it will bring the people of Balkh the promise of a brighter [00:19:11] future, and according to them, it has ended the era [00:19:15] of tyranny and dictatorship in this province. [00:19:18] The Deputy Governor of Balkh, who at that time was serving [00:19:22] as the head of the military commission of this province, [00:19:25] says that the forces of the Islamic Emirate, after [00:19:29] conflicts and sacrifices, first took control [00:19:32] of Zareh district, then other areas of Balkh province, and finally [00:19:36] the city of Sharif. According to him, [00:19:39] all these advancements were carried [00:19:42] out according to a regular plan, [00:19:45] and as a result, the entire province of Balkh was gradually [00:19:49] brought under control. [00:19:51] In Balkh province, the first district to be conquered [00:19:55] was the district of Zareh. [00:19:58] زاراره [00:20:01] One after another, they came to other districts. [00:20:04] Province. [00:20:50] We instructed the heads of each department to control [00:20:53] their own departments. This instruction was given. [00:20:57] Officials also add that after the entry [00:21:01] of the Islamic Emirate forces into Mazar-e-Sharif, the first [00:21:05] measures were taken to protect people's personal property [00:21:08] and government facilities so that under those circumstances, [00:21:12] personal assets and public places would not [00:21:16] be harmed. Praise be to God, all the property [00:21:20] of the people, the public treasury, all were protected. [00:21:24] I entered at night, and during the day, people came out [00:21:27] on the streets to welcome us. There was no anxiety, [00:21:30] praise be to God. And they came in a very [00:21:34] organized way. I know [00:21:36] that [00:21:39] no shop was damaged, no bank was damaged, praise be to God. [00:21:42] Nothing bad happened, and everything, people's property, [00:21:46] people's shops, money exchangers, [00:22:50] that after the rise of the Islamic Emirate, significant [00:22:53] progress has been made in the industrial and trade sectors. [00:22:57] According to them, in addition to the establishment of hundreds [00:23:00] of production factories, thousands of tons of commercial [00:23:04] goods are exported abroad annually, and the import [00:23:07] of goods from foreign countries is also ongoing normally [00:23:11] in various sectors. Alhamdulillah, in Balkh [00:23:14] province, in five years, Alhamdulillah, we have reached [00:23:18] such a stage that [00:23:50] Alhamdulillah, there has been very remarkable service in the last five [00:23:53] years in the field of industry and these [00:23:57] things. Masha'Allah, they have shown good progress, and [00:24:00] everyone is satisfied, and our endeavor from Afghans is that [00:24:04] factories should be established for our suffering people. [00:24:08] Instead of war, work should be [00:24:12] found, peace should prevail, and calm should be established. Alhamdulillah, the people are satisfied, [00:24:15] and hundreds and thousands of factories have been established. [00:24:18] Development projects in the city of Mazar-e-Sharif [00:24:22] are another sector that has received attention [00:24:25] in recent years. Officials say [00:24:28] that after the establishment of the Islamic Emirate, [00:24:31] hundreds of development projects have been implemented in various [00:24:35] parts of the city, including the construction of roads, [00:24:38] intersections, greenery, and cleaning of the city. [00:24:42] Among them is the city of Mazar-e-Sharif. With the arrival of the Islamic [00:24:46] Emirate, in approximately these five years, [00:24:50] efforts have been made for the standardized expansion of the city of Mazar-e-Sharif, [00:24:54] the beauty of the city, and also in the lighting [00:24:58] sector. We have implemented approximately 200 large projects [00:25:01] in the city, and these projects have been implemented from the development [00:25:04] budget of Mazar-e-Sharif, which amounts to approximately 2.5 billion Afghanis. [00:25:08] Now that five years have passed since that day, [00:25:12] people say that they are living their lives peacefully [00:25:15] alongside the Islamic Emirate. They [00:25:19] add that, compared to the past, the conditions [00:25:22] for a better life have improved for them. [00:25:25] The fundamental developments that have taken place [00:25:29] in the country during these many years [00:25:32] that changes have occurred in Afghanistan have not happened. [00:25:36] In short, today we are witnessing [00:25:38] development, witnessing progress, [00:25:41] witnessing reconstruction, witnessing modernization [00:25:44] in Afghanistan, especially today, with this [00:25:48] beautiful city of Balkh province, let's [00:25:52] give an example. We see that the face [00:25:55] of Balkh province, the city of Balkh province, the geography [00:25:59] of Balkh province, with the efforts and [00:26:02] endeavors of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan, [00:26:06] has completely changed. It is worth mentioning that with the passing [00:26:10] of five years since the day of the conquest of Balkh province, [00:26:13] in addition to ensuring security and stability in the fields [00:26:17] of economy, industry, trade, and urban development, [00:26:20] significant activities have also been carried out. [00:26:24] Officials of the Islamic Emirate also assure that they will spare [00:26:27] no effort for further [00:26:30] progress. [00:26:34] The Mujahideen of Laghman province say that five years ago today, upon entering [00:26:38] the city and conquering this province, they were welcomed [00:26:41] by the people. On [00:26:44] the 23rd of Asad, 14 Hijri Shamsi, [00:26:47] five years ago on such a day, Laghman province was conquered by the Mujahideen [00:26:50] of the Islamic Emirate, an event that turned the hopes of the residents [00:26:54] of this province into reality. Qari Zahedullah Fateh, [00:26:57] the governor of Qara district of Laghman province, considered this conquest a great victory. [00:27:01] دانسته. [00:30:32] Afghanistan, five years have passed. This province has made significant [00:30:36] progress in the past five years in the developmental, educational, health, [00:30:39] cultural, economic, and many other sectors, [00:30:43] and efforts to take faster steps in these [00:30:46] sectors are still ongoing.
