00:00:00news states that in these attacks, Saudi forces and arms
00:00:03depots were targeted.

00:00:09Officials of the Republic of Tatarstan, Russia, announced that following the attacks by Ukrainian drones
00:00:12on the city of Nizhnekamsk, two people
00:00:16died and 39 others were injured. According to these officials,
00:00:20industrial and civilian facilities, including the
00:00:23Nizhnekamsk oil refinery, which is located about two thousand
00:00:26kilometers from Ukrainian territory, were targeted.
00:02:00In the past five years, the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan
00:02:03has adopted a balanced political strategy of balanced
00:02:06relations, national sovereignty, non-interference, economic
00:02:10strengthening, regional and
00:02:13mutual
00:02:16development. On July 3, 2025,
00:02:19Russia became the first country to officially recognize
00:02:23the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan. In
00:02:25the
00:02:29meantime, relations between Central and South Asian countries
00:02:33have progressed politically and
00:02:36economically, and significant progress has been made
00:02:40in two areas.
00:02:43شوی دی
00:03:44we will celebrate the fifth anniversary of
00:03:47the victory of the Islamic
00:03:50Emirate of Afghanistan and
00:03:53the establishment of the Islamic Emirate
00:03:56system in Afghanistan. Yes,
00:04:00given the conditions we had five years ago,
00:04:03that is, at the beginning of the arrival
00:04:06of the Islamic Emirate, the world did not expect
00:04:10this. The world was not ready
00:04:12for the Western countries, which had
00:04:16deployed a very large number of troops in Afghanistan,
00:04:20to be defeated, for the previous government to be defeated, and for
00:04:24the Islamic Emirate system to come to power. There
00:04:27was no readiness for the world's governments.
00:04:30When the Emirate came to power, unfortunately,
00:04:34most countries in the world, in a way,
00:04:37put pressure on the Islamic Emirate and, in a way,
00:04:40sanctioned it. For example,
00:04:44you know that the United
00:04:47Nations still has not handed over Afghanistan's representation
00:04:51to the Islamic Emirate.
00:04:54The incidental issues
00:04:58we had were blocked. And also,
00:05:01some of the leaders of the Islamic Emirate were on the
00:05:05blacklist and still are. All
00:05:08of this indicated that the world
00:05:13did not easily want to have good relations
00:05:17with the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan. However,
00:05:19based on the efforts made by the Afghan Foreign
00:05:23Ministry and based on the efforts
00:05:27of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan in its diplomacy,
00:05:31it achieved very significant successes. Today,
00:05:35we see that about dozens
00:05:38of countries have close relations with the Islamic
00:05:42Emirate. The representations of the Islamic Emirate have reopened
00:05:46in many countries of the world. These were all
00:05:49very great and unexpected
00:05:52successes. But despite these successes,
00:05:55it is not enough. That's right. In the field
00:05:58of foreign policy, we have achieved very great
00:06:02successes, but despite these successes, we must take
00:06:06other steps to
00:06:09reach a better situation, a better
00:06:13state in Afghanistan's diplomatic relations with the world.
00:06:16Well, honorable professor, if we move from the global
00:06:20level to the regional level, how do you evaluate
00:06:23the relations of the Islamic Emirate in the region in these five years?
00:06:26Were the economic and trade relations
00:06:29that the Islamic Emirate strengthened and established with the region
00:06:33successful in these five years? Well, in
00:06:36the region, the successes have been very good, especially
00:06:40in the Central Asian countries.
00:06:43Afghanistan's relations with Central Asian
00:06:47countries have been very good and very fruitful.
00:06:51But with other countries, well, in some issues, there
00:06:55have been problems, and in some issues, it has gone well.
00:06:58We must keep in mind that we can
00:07:02draw a balanced policy
00:07:05for Afghanistan in the region and neighboring
00:07:08countries, proportionate to its value and interests
00:07:12for Afghanistan. If we try
00:07:15too much, we may be harmed
00:07:19and suffer losses. Well, you know
00:07:23Afghanistan's relations with the countries of the region, with
00:07:26China, with Central Asian countries, with
00:07:30Russia, with Iran, have been very close.
00:07:33But despite this,
00:07:36unfortunately, these countries should have recognized
00:07:40Afghanistan, whereas these countries still have not
00:07:43officially recognized Afghanistan. If we ask what
00:07:46the problem is, why these countries
00:07:49did not follow Russia's lead and did not recognize
00:07:53the Islamic Emirate government, you see that most
00:07:57countries in the region are
00:08:00influenced by countries like Pakistan
00:08:03and Iran. Of course, Afghanistan's
00:08:06relations with Iran are very strong, but my opinion
00:08:10is that countries like Pakistan and Iran,
00:08:14it's true they want to have relations with Afghanistan,
00:08:17and some do, but
00:08:20they don't have the intention to have a powerful government
00:08:24in Afghanistan, a stable government.
00:08:27They don't have that good intention for Afghanistan.
00:08:31It's true that every country, due to its
00:08:34constraints, tries to establish warm
00:08:37relations with another country at certain
00:08:40points. You see that,
00:08:43especially in the last year, Iran's diplomatic situation
00:08:46is in disarray. The problems in Iran and the
00:08:50war it has with some countries make it obvious
00:08:54that it is trying to turn to some countries like
00:08:57Afghanistan. But we should not be deceived
00:09:00that, unfortunately, what we see in history
00:09:03is that our neighboring countries have not had
00:09:06good relations with Afghanistan. Of course, it can be
00:09:10different with Central Asian
00:09:13countries, especially in the last 15 years, meaning after
00:09:17the collapse of the former Soviet Union. But in
00:09:20this regard, my view is that they should not invest
00:09:24beyond their capacity, because the harm that neighboring
00:09:28countries can cause is that they might deceive
00:09:32us, deceive us from countries like Western
00:09:35countries, from Arab Islamic countries. They can
00:09:38deceive us. And in international relations,
00:09:42you know that it's always been one,
00:09:46always in conflict with each other. There
00:09:49are international rivalries. Therefore, we must adopt
00:09:52a policy that, while maintaining good
00:09:56relations with neighboring countries, we don't put all our
00:10:00eggs in one basket. How should these rivalries you mentioned
00:10:04be managed? In this area, how should the Islamic
00:10:07Emirate take steps to manage these rivalries
00:10:11in Afghanistan's favor? Well, first, it should not be deceived,
00:10:15meaning it should not feel that these relations
00:10:19with these countries alone will secure all
00:10:22its interests and not be bribed. In international
00:10:26relations, bribery is also a serious
00:10:29issue. Some countries that have a history
00:10:33of bribery try to bribe some officials
00:10:36of other countries, especially some of our neighboring
00:10:40countries are very experienced in this regard.
00:10:42And to have an understanding,
00:10:46an understanding of the international situation, of
00:10:49Afghanistan's national interests. They must
00:10:52have an understanding to be able to establish very
00:10:56extensive relations. You see, in
00:10:59Afghanistan, in the past five years, we
00:11:03have had more than 10 conferences,
00:11:06for example, international conferences in our neighboring
00:11:10countries, where they held conferences
00:11:13under various titles, and unfortunately, they tried
00:11:17to monopolize Afghanistan, and to some extent,
00:11:20they succeeded in this. Countries of
00:11:23the region, be assured
00:11:36that it is Pakistan's policy. For example, during the visit
00:11:39of Iranian officials to Pakistan, when Pakistanis were invading
00:11:43Afghanistan, bombing Afghanistan, killing our children,
00:11:46when Mr. Larijani went to Pakistan, he told
00:11:50Pakistani officials that we would give them a blank
00:11:53check on the issue of Afghanistan and Pakistan. He did
00:11:56not say Afghanistan
00:11:59to Pakistan. The honorable question is exactly
00:12:03this: why do Iran or Pakistan,
00:12:07for the sake of stability in their own country, need
00:12:10stability in Afghanistan? What are these contradictions about? You
00:12:14see, the international system is defined
00:12:17by the expansion of influence. That is,
00:12:20every country tries to influence
00:12:23other countries and make them influenced
00:12:26by its policies. This international
00:12:29order is founded on this basis. Yes,
00:12:33and this policy of not interfering
00:12:36in other countries, for example, of not
00:12:38harming other countries, is a very moral
00:12:42issue, which, unfortunately, has been less observed
00:12:46and is less observed in the world. In
00:12:49this regard, we must be vigilant
00:12:52and first have a draft foreign
00:12:55policy. Unfortunately, in the last 50 years,
00:12:59since we have always been in war, conflict,
00:13:02and destruction, we do not have
00:13:05or roadmap for our foreign
00:13:09policy. And this is a
00:13:12shortcoming that every government that has
00:13:15come to power in Afghanistan has implemented its foreign
00:13:19policies based on its own understanding
00:13:22and perception. However, unfortunately, there is
00:13:26no organized and codified roadmap for Afghanistan's
00:13:30foreign policy, and this is a major
00:13:33blow to Afghanistan. How much do neighboring
00:13:36countries need Afghanistan's geo-economic position, and
00:13:40how should the Islamic Emirate
00:13:43better utilize this position as an opportunity? You see,
00:13:47Afghanistan has a very important geopolitical
00:13:51and geostrategic position. This can
00:13:58be an opportunity for neighboring countries and
00:14:02the region to look at Afghanistan
00:14:04positively and establish
00:14:07friendly relations
00:14:10based on international
00:14:14norms. This is a positive opportunity
00:14:17that will benefit everyone. It is
00:14:20good for Afghanistan and
00:14:24good for our neighboring countries.
00:14:28Economically, it can lead to appropriate
00:14:31trade, and security-wise, it can
00:14:35bring security. However, there may be times
00:14:39when, unfortunately, some countries have bad intentions
00:14:43and create negative competition, harming
00:14:46this golden position that Afghanistan has in the region.
00:14:50This is the negative aspect. For
00:14:52every valuable commodity,
00:15:19has acted very successfully, and this is very
00:15:22excellent and commendable. However,
00:15:25regarding some neighboring countries
00:15:29like Pakistan, well, you know that, unfortunately,
00:15:33we are facing tension. In the case of China
00:15:36and Iran, well, there are successes,
00:15:39but we must pay attention that
00:15:43we should not just focus on trade
00:15:46and import
00:15:48of goods. We should also be exporters
00:15:52of goods. We are mostly importers. All
00:15:56countries try to find a consumer market
00:15:59for themselves, and Afghanistan is mostly
00:16:03considered a consumer market
00:16:06rather than a production hub for
00:16:10foreign countries. We must strive to strengthen
00:16:12our exports. Our exports exist, but
00:16:16unfortunately, they are very small. We must
00:16:19strive to expand our exports and
00:16:23also utilize the transit route that Afghanistan
00:16:26has a good position
00:16:28in the region.
00:16:31The issue of Afghanistan
00:16:35that in the past
00:17:09four decades, one of the problems we had
00:17:12in Afghanistan was that Afghanistan's
00:17:15foreign relations with the world were excessively
00:17:19political. Yes. But one of the achievements
00:17:22that the Islamic Emirate currently has is
00:17:26that it has tried to shape Afghanistan's
00:17:30relations with the world around economics, and
00:17:33this is excellent. If the Islamic Emirate
00:17:38succeeds in making its relations with
00:17:41the world commercial and economic
00:17:45before making them political and security-related, this
00:17:48is a very positive development. Fortunately, in
00:17:52this regard, my view is that
00:17:55the Emirate has been somewhat successful in
00:17:59this area, and its emphasis is on
00:18:02Afghanistan's relations with the world being
00:18:05more focused on economic
00:18:41matters. Unfortunately, Afghanistan's membership in international
00:18:44organizations is still facing some challenges.
00:18:47You know, for example,
00:18:51we have not yet succeeded, that
00:18:54is, Afghanistan or the Islamic Emirate has
00:18:58not yet succeeded in gaining membership in the
00:19:02Islamic Conference, and the Islamic conferences
00:19:05that have been held in these five years, perhaps
00:19:08there have been exceptional cases, but
00:19:10generally not. There is no representative of
00:19:14Afghanistan there. This itself is a problem.
00:19:18Unfortunately, we are not yet a member
00:19:21of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization. Previously, for
00:19:25example, we were a member of SAARC,
00:19:29but now there are some problems.
00:19:31There are problems in this area.
00:19:35That is, as I told you earlier,
00:19:39despite the initial conditions in which
00:19:42the world was unwilling to establish relations
00:19:45with the Islamic Emirate, and the conditions that
00:19:49the United Nations has with Afghanistan, the
00:19:52Islamic Emirate has achieved very great successes.
00:19:55However, these successes are not enough. The
00:19:59Islamic Emirate must strive to make
00:20:02these countries recognize the Islamic Emirate,
00:20:05or at least the countries of the region.
00:20:09In international law, the recognition of countries
00:20:12takes place in two ways. One is
00:20:15de jure, which is a formal
00:20:19recognition that is irreversible and
00:20:22inalienable. The other is de facto
00:20:25recognition, which countries can withdraw
00:20:29at any time. For example, they can
00:20:32say that we do not recognize that
00:20:36country. We are
00:20:57not internationally recognized. Diplomatic delegations do not
00:21:01travel, but we have international agreements and
00:21:05our diplomatic delegations
00:21:08travel. We are in a middle
00:21:12ground, and this problem must be
00:21:16solved. You see that recognition
00:21:19of governments in the world
00:21:22is not mandatory. Yes, we cannot
00:21:26order a country that, for example,
00:21:30it is your duty to recognize
00:21:33the Islamic Emirate. The recognition of
00:21:36governments by other governments is a
00:21:40matter of choice. That is, all
00:21:43governments have the right to choose
00:21:47which country they recognize or do not recognize.
00:21:58It is for Afghanistan to create
00:22:01incentives for foreign countries.
00:22:04That is, the recognition of countries and
00:22:07the warming of relations with
00:22:10governments requires that every
00:22:13government create incentives for other
00:22:17governments. That is, for example, Afghanistan
00:22:20must promote its mines in the countries
00:22:24of the world, saying that we have good
00:22:28things, for example, our mines have
00:22:32good qualities, meaning opportunities. You should
00:22:35come and invest in Afghanistan. The
00:22:39same applies to recognition. Professor,
00:22:42how much can we count
00:22:45on these
00:22:47organizations in the region?
00:22:58Or how much can countries like
00:23:01China, which is one of the powerful countries
00:23:04in the region, help the Islamic Emirate
00:23:07in terms of recognition? Or can organizations
00:23:11in the region, led by China and Russia,
00:23:15lobby these Central Asian
00:23:17or South Asian countries to recognize
00:25:20Also, returning from Hajj and Umrah, Article
00:25:231, Number 16: The wedding
00:25:26ceremony should be held without extravagance
00:25:29and in accordance with the groom's financial ability
00:25:33and in the desired venue and cars. The
00:25:36bride's family cannot force the groom to
00:25:40hold the wedding ceremony in a hotel or
00:25:44expensive cars. Article 1, Number
00:25:4717: The groom holds the wedding ceremony
00:28:05Afghanistan, in the course of its progress,
00:28:08is a peace-loving country!
00:28:12In Afghanistan,
00:28:14news has increased,
00:28:18and an Islamic system has been established
00:28:21throughout
00:28:22the country.
00:28:27In the economic
00:28:27and other sectors,
00:28:32construction
00:28:34is underway. The Islamic Emirate is undertaking
00:28:38major projects in the
00:28:40country.
00:28:42The Qosh Tapa Canal project, the reconstruction
00:28:46of the Salang Highway, the construction of large
00:28:49dams, the
00:28:52Kabul River, and some other major projects
00:28:55are receiving special attention from the Islamic Emirate,
00:28:59and many projects are still under expansion.
00:29:04Along with this, news of
00:29:06joy and happiness is being
00:29:10heard throughout the country. Everywhere,
00:29:13good security is being
00:29:16established.
00:29:18Peace and happiness
00:29:22were not achieved
00:29:22quickly.
00:29:27With this, Afghanistan has good relations
00:29:30with its neighbors and
00:29:45countries cannot tolerate it, and
00:29:48they want to create some problems
00:29:52by forming groups, and they do not
00:29:55want a united Islamic vision
00:29:57in Afghanistan.
00:30:02Countries should develop Islamic,
00:30:06political, good neighbor, and diplomatic relations
00:30:14with other countries.
