[00:10:12] And also follow the news here to keep up with the latest
[00:10:16] from Afghanistan over the past 24 hours, including events that
[00:10:20] have occurred outside and inside Afghanistan, as well as
[00:10:23] our dear and honorable guests.
[00:12:55] that the Pakistani government, by raising such
[00:12:58] issues, is trying to impose demands on Afghanistan that are
[00:13:02] not reasonable
[00:13:04] or legitimate.
[00:13:06] Although the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan has always assured that
[00:13:10] the territory of Afghanistan will never be used against other countries,
[00:13:14] especially Pakistan, recently, the Pakistani
[00:13:17] Foreign Minister once again asked the Islamic Emirate not
[00:13:21] to allow Afghanistan's territory to be used against other countries.
[00:14:59] international community has not made
[00:15:02] criticisms.
[00:15:04] It has not properly fulfilled its responsibilities
[00:15:08] towards Afghanistan.
[00:15:09] The remaining assets of Afghanistan. Second,
[00:15:12] the country's rapid development, economic
[00:15:16] situation, prosperity, and the existence of the economic
[00:15:20] situation are among the important shortcomings of the international community regarding Afghans.
[00:15:23] The
[00:15:27] Islamic Emirate is moving in a positive direction.
[00:15:31] The Islamic Emirate has fulfilled its responsibilities
[00:15:34] towards the Afghan people. The
[00:15:44] Central Bank's
[00:15:45] assets
[00:15:48] for the rapid development of the country and
[00:15:51] the improvement of the economic situation
[00:15:55] are among the major shortcomings of the international community in Afghanistan. The
[00:15:58] country
[00:16:01] is moving in a good direction, but the remaining
[00:16:04] assets of Afghanistan are under sanctions. The country's
[00:16:08] rapid development, economic growth, and the
[00:16:12] improvement of society are among the important
[00:16:15] shortcomings of the international community in Afghanistan. The
[00:16:19] Ministry of Emergency Affairs
[00:16:22] says that Afghanistan is
[00:16:23] an independent
[00:16:27] country, and that
[00:16:31] interference
[00:16:36] by other countries is not acceptable. Just
[00:16:38] as we have countries,
[00:16:41] in other countries,
[00:16:45] they should
[00:16:49] not use their existing resources as
[00:16:52] a tool of pressure to implement their desires
[00:16:55] in Afghanistan. Afghans
[00:16:57] are not against any
[00:17:00] force. He
[00:17:04] has been preserved
[00:17:07] as a tool in their blood.
[00:17:10] The Afghan people will not bow to the demands
[00:17:14] of foreign powers. The
[00:17:17] Ministry of Emergency Affairs adds that the Islamic Emirate
[00:17:20] is pursuing a balanced foreign policy with all regional
[00:17:24] countries through political relations.
[00:17:26] The
[00:17:30] Minister
[00:17:31] of Health of Russia, in a meeting with the Minister of Health of Afghanistan in Moscow, said that Moscow is ready for technical
[00:17:34] cooperation in the field of strengthening
[00:17:37] Afghanistan's health sector. Maulvi Nur Jalal Jalali, in a meeting with
[00:17:41] his Russian counterpart, called for cooperation in improving
[00:17:44] the quality of health services, capacity building of
[00:17:48] health workers, and providing modern medical facilities.
[00:17:52] Maulvi Nur Jalal Jalali, Minister of Health
[00:17:54] and Islamic Emirate, in a meeting with the Minister of Health of Russia in Moscow,

[00:18:01] strengthening and establishing a health system for
[00:18:04] imports, and cooperation in the field of medicines.
[00:20:07] Public health, a few days ago, on an official visit, went to Belarus and met with
[00:20:11] a number of officials and visited various health centers.
[00:20:14] These meetings were held with the aim of developing Afghanistan's health sector and
[00:20:18] training health workers. We
[00:20:20] are guests in your homes through
[00:20:23] the media window of the people of Afghanistan. Follow the program until

[00:20:47] relevant agencies, they have full
[00:21:00] preparedness for disasters, and in case of such
[00:21:04] incidents, the

[00:21:36] the injured, safely transport them, and provide
[00:21:39] assistance. Mr. Nusrat adds that the country's
[00:21:43] protection
[00:21:45] provides basic necessities and medicine quickly. In
[00:21:49] his statement, the Ministry is ready to help
[00:21:52] public
[00:21:58] infrastructure and civilians. It will quickly provide initial aid, including
[00:22:01] food items, medicine, and essential living supplies, to affected countries. The Ministry
[00:22:05] of Defense is committed to protecting the lives, property,
[00:22:09] and honor of civilians and will take necessary
[00:22:12] measures to protect public facilities and private properties. The Ministry of Defense
[00:22:16] will use all available resources to protect
[00:22:22] the country and provide timely assistance.
[00:22:26] The Ministry of Defense has responded
[00:22:29] to floods, earthquakes,
[00:22:31] and other incidents in various
[00:22:33] provinces
[00:22:36] of the country and has taken effective measures
[00:22:40] to help the affected people.
[00:22:43] Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, and the United Arab Emirates have established
[00:22:47] a railway corridor through Afghanistan
[00:22:51] and connected Central Asia to the seaports of Pakistan. A memorandum
[00:22:54] of cooperation has been signed. According to economic experts, these
[00:22:58] projects, in addition to other benefits for Afghanistan, can
[00:23:01] strengthen Afghanistan's position in regional transit.
[00:23:05] Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, and
[00:23:08] the United Arab Emirates have signed a memorandum of cooperation
[00:23:12] for the expansion of a railway route through Afghanistan and the connection
[00:23:16] of Central Asian countries to the ports of Pakistan.
[00:23:21] The Ministries of Transport of Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan and the Ministry of Energy
[00:23:25] and Infrastructure of the United Arab Emirates signed this
[00:23:28] memorandum with the aim of expanding cooperation in the fields of international
[00:23:32] transport, trade, logistics, and investment.
[00:23:35] The Ministry of Public Works welcomes this
[00:23:39] plan and considers the expansion of railway networks through
[00:23:43] Afghanistan a significant step towards expanding
[00:23:46] trade, facilitating transit, and strengthening economic ties between
[00:23:50] countries, and assures its readiness to cooperate
[00:23:53] in these sectors. The Ministry of Public Works of the Islamic
[00:23:57] Emirate of Afghanistan, considering the secure
[00:24:00] environment and current favorable conditions in the
[00:24:03] country, and within the framework of the economy-centric policy
[00:24:06] of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan, welcomes
[00:24:10] countries of the region and the world that strive for the development
[00:24:13] of railway lines in Afghanistan and expresses its readiness
[00:24:17] for any cooperation in accordance with the country's applicable laws.
[00:24:21] Economic experts say that if this project is implemented, Afghanistan,
[00:24:25] in addition to economic and transit benefits, can transform
[00:24:28] from a landlocked country into an important link
[00:24:31] in the regional transit chain. This project
[00:24:34] can be part of the new transit and trade map between
[00:24:38] Central Asian countries and, similarly, South Asia. This means
[00:24:41] that countries like Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan, since they are landlocked
[00:24:45] countries, can access open waters through
[00:24:49] Afghanistan. And specifically, Afghanistan can
[00:24:53] transform from a transit country into an important
[00:24:56] link in the regional transit chain. This is a very
[00:25:00] good project and a lot of work has been done on it. It is truly
[00:25:03] very effective for the people and economy of Afghanistan.
[00:25:07] Afghanistan can improve its exports
[00:25:10] and become very prosperous. In this
[00:25:14] regard, it can increase its domestic production and
[00:25:17] exports. This corridor through Uzbekistan.
[00:25:29] Regional trade and transit played an important role.
[00:25:33] The
[00:25:36] governor of Kandahar denied the recent claim by Pakistan's
[00:25:40] defense minister, saying that he had met with
[00:25:43] militants in Kandahar. The Kandahar provincial information
[00:25:47] office said that Pakistan
[00:25:50] is trying to use such claims to justify targeting
[00:25:54] civilians and committing war
[00:25:56] crimes in Afghanistan. The Kandahar governor
[00:25:59] called Pakistan's statement baseless and
[00:26:03] strongly rejected that he had met with
[00:26:06] militants in Kandahar. The Kandahar
[00:26:09] provincial information office said in a statement that Pakistan
[00:26:12] is trying
[00:26:15] to justify the killing of civilians and other war
[00:26:19] crimes in Afghanistan through its claims. The statement
[00:26:22] also stressed that Afghanistan has no need
[00:26:26] for foreign militants and to hold meetings
[00:26:29] with them. Pakistan's
[00:26:35] province held a meeting with foreign militants.
[00:26:38] This type of statement
[00:26:40] by Pakistan is a part of
[00:26:43] its efforts to use such claims to cover up
[00:26:46] the killing of civilians
[00:26:49] and other crimes in Afghanistan. These
[00:26:52] statements are being made while on Thursday night,
[00:26:56] Pakistan
[00:26:59] targeted civilians in Helmand and Khost.
[00:27:55] It
[00:27:57] has been done.
[00:28:37] From the beginning to the end of September of this year,
[00:28:40] 791
[00:28:43] metric tons of transfers were carried out through
[00:28:46] Afghanistan's railway lines. Mohammad Ashraf Haq Shanas, spokesperson for the Ministry of Public
[00:28:50] Works, says that these transfers included petroleum, non-petroleum
[00:28:54] products, and other goods, and were carried out through
[00:28:57] Aqina, Torghundi, and Khawaf-Herat
[00:29:01] routes. Until the
[00:29:04] end, Afghanistan's
[00:29:05] main route
[00:29:09] has been made.
[00:29:48] The exports and imports between
[00:29:52] the Afghan government, Afghan investors, industrialists,
[00:29:55] and even farmers have created many
[00:29:58] opportunities and have had a positive impact on increasing exports.
[00:30:03] In terms of exports or imports,
[00:30:06] if the railway is used, or if transfers are made through the railway,
[00:30:10] it can undoubtedly have a very positive impact
[00:30:14] on reducing prices in the market, because goods
[00:30:18] are imported into the market or
[00:30:21] exported through the railway much cheaper and
[00:30:25] faster, which can lead to trade prosperity. The Ministry of Public Works
[00:30:29] says that it is trying to provide suitable conditions
[00:30:32] for increasing transfers and creating more facilities for
[00:30:35] traders.
[00:30:40] The news is also from Helmand province. The Minister of Information
[00:30:43] and Culture, Sheikh Shir Ahmad Haqqani, traveled to Helmand province, and in
[00:30:47] the Department of Information and Culture, the orphanage
[00:30:51] city and Babaji
[00:30:52] educational bridge
[00:30:56] emphasized the quality and performance of work
[00:31:00] according to the specified standards.
