00:00:00it makes it sunny, so based on that, I think that this urgent need
00:00:04is not only for the leadership of the Islamic Emirate or the current
00:00:07system. All ethnic groups and different strata, all scholars
00:00:10of Afghanistan, must believe in justice. The implementation
00:00:13of social justice for the Islamic Ummah is, in a sense,
00:00:17an obligation that even, in a sense, has a religious
00:00:20background. Based on that, I think that we live in a geography
00:00:24where there have always been inequalities, hardships,
00:00:28and it has been a geography where the countries that you
00:00:32mentioned in your previous question, who were present inside Afghanistan, tried
00:00:35to usurp justice, tried to bring people
00:00:39to the head of the system or to the head of power who would, in a sense, remove
00:00:43the true meaning of justice and try to work according
00:00:47to the specific desires of the countries that have always
00:00:51been their patrons and have always supported them, and they tried to at least
00:00:55remove justice from the Islamic Ummah and ultimately from the people of Afghanistan.
00:00:58But in the current circumstances, it is imperative that the Islamic Emirate
00:01:02first try to open its arms to the people of Afghanistan. When
00:01:06the chest of the Islamic Emirate is open, when social justice
00:01:09is established for all scholars and strata of Afghanistan,
00:01:12naturally, people will believe that the Islamic system can
00:01:16be responsive to all Islamic, human, and civil values
00:01:20of the people of Afghanistan. Mr. Sa'el, the nation of Afghanistan is wounded. 5
00:01:23decades of war and misfortune have scattered all the people
00:01:27of Afghanistan today. You witnessed that in the
00:01:31past, the countries that were present inside Afghanistan, each of them
00:01:34had deployed agents who came to Afghanistan and wanted
00:01:38to judge unilaterally and one-sidedly, and they wanted,
00:01:42in a sense, in response to inequalities, to remain silent
00:01:45about it. But when we talk about an Islamic system, an Islamic system
00:01:49must be based on justice. When justice is established,
00:01:53there is no longer any back and forth between the government. How much,
00:01:56compared to the past that you also mentioned, has the skirt of injustice
00:02:00been removed from Afghanistan? I hope that it will be removed.
00:02:04The skirt of injustice, as I mentioned earlier, Afghanistan
00:02:07is a multi-ethnic land. When you go to a garden, the beauty of a
00:02:11garden is in the presence of colorful flowers. When
00:02:14there are different ethnic groups and strata of society
00:02:18on a tablecloth that is spread in Afghanistan, when there are colorful
00:02:21flowers, naturally, justice expresses its true meaning. The Islamic Emirate
00:02:25has tried for 5 years to establish justice among the ethnic groups and different
00:02:29strata of society.
00:03:30The rulings of Sharia are applied here, naturally, the nation becomes happy,
00:03:33the nation becomes pleased, because the people of Afghanistan are born Muslims,
00:03:37born from Muslim mothers. We have seen for 20 years that the Westerners,
00:03:41in a sense, launched cold wars
00:03:43inside Afghanistan in various ways. They tried to bring a cultural invasion
00:03:47inside Afghanistan. You even witnessed that they often
00:03:51wanted to change the mindset of our youth, they wanted to prepare
00:03:54everything according to their own desires and culture,
00:03:57because social justice was not established here,
00:04:01the application of Sharia was not truly present, and for example, it was a republican
00:04:05system, but everything was implemented according to the wishes of Westerners and Easterners.
00:04:08Therefore, in the current circumstances, it is necessary for the Islamic Emirate,
00:04:12just as it celebrated its fifth year
00:04:15and shared this celebration with the people of Afghanistan, it would be good
00:04:18for it to address some small and minor challenges
00:04:22that are currently, in a sense, among the people of Afghanistan,
00:04:25or to reflect on them. The more a system has popular support,
00:04:29the more systems stand with the nation, because
00:04:33there is a nation that has a system; if there is no nation, there is no system. Why, in the past, despite
00:04:36the presence of NATO forces, America, and most countries in Afghanistan,
00:04:40did the governments not have popular support? The will of the people, or, in other words,
00:04:44the words of the people, were not paid attention to. A small group held everything hostage.
00:04:47They neither had respect for justice nor for mutual acceptance,
00:04:51and they thought that they would remain in power permanently.
00:04:54But when the Islamic Emirate came, I hope that
00:04:58the Islamic Emirate will make up for that past. It should review
00:05:01the political history of Afghanistan. It should always
00:05:05move in line with the people of Afghanistan, which it has been doing, and good relations
00:05:09between the nation and the government make governments sustainable.
00:16:37What does the United Nations and the international community want
00:16:41from Afghanistan to be recognized? Security is established.
00:16:44There is no threat from
00:16:48Afghanistan to any country.
00:16:51Also, the people who are also pleased, what do
00:16:54they really want? First,
00:16:56it should be asked who is at the head
00:17:00of the United Nations? Who manages the apparatus of the United Nations?
00:17:04And whose agent is the United Nations? The United Nations
00:17:08is an agent of those who were present inside Afghanistan for 20 years,
00:17:11and as I mentioned before, their last soldier left
00:17:15Afghanistan at night, and according to them, when they returned
00:17:18from Afghanistan, they had a conference and said, "We feel guilty about Afghanistan,"
00:17:22and they should have felt guilty. The reason is clear
00:17:25that when they left Afghanistan, they even destroyed
00:17:29the cars they had bought here, they destroyed the paper
00:17:33houses they had built here, and the apparatus they had
00:17:36inside Afghanistan. They destroyed everything. If they had come
00:17:40to Afghanistan for nation-building and with the international community,
00:17:44they would not have done that, and they themselves said that we did not go to Afghanistan for nation-building,
00:17:48we went for our own goals, and they did not achieve their goals,
00:17:51and they were humiliated again, they returned to their country. Today, the international
00:17:55community's view of Afghanistan has always been populist,
00:17:58it has been a dual view. They have never seen Afghanistan as human.
00:18:02Afghanistan has always presented a strategic confrontation to countries.
00:18:06It has been a springboard for countries that are members of the United Nations
00:18:09and have influenced the apparatus of the United Nations. It has always
00:18:13presented them. Today, Afghanistan is the most secure geography in Central
00:18:16Asia. This is an undeniable truth. The whole world must
00:18:20understand that today there is no war in Afghanistan, there is no insecurity
00:18:24in Afghanistan, there is stability in Afghanistan. In the past,
00:18:27you could not travel to one district. Afghanistan
00:18:31is diverse, with multiple districts, but those who were in one district
00:18:35could not travel from one district to their province, to another district.
00:18:38Today, the borders of Afghanistan are under the control of the Islamic Emirate,
00:18:42under the leadership of the Islamic Emirate. Even neighboring
00:18:44countries often send their tourists to Afghanistan.
00:18:48They take pictures and videos inside Afghanistan, and they come here
00:18:52to see all the fundamental and historical sites of Afghanistan
00:18:55up close. So what excuse does the international community have?
00:18:59Is the international community only looking to bring back the burnt
00:19:03pawns into Afghanistan, to bring back Western and Eastern countries
00:19:06into Afghanistan so that they threaten Afghanistan's security,
00:19:10undermine Afghanistan's interests, and bring back their deployed agents
00:19:14to work for their apparatus? This is a dream and an illusion. Today,
00:19:17the arrogance that the international community and the United Nations
00:19:21had towards Afghanistan for the past 20 years, they don't have
00:19:24it today. Today they understand that their hands are cut short
00:19:28in Afghanistan. With various excuses, they always portray a negative
00:19:31image of Afghanistan in the world. If I were to say, from the perspective of the international community,
00:19:34the United Nations officially defines...
00:19:43I think that if the recognition is based on their own beliefs, meaning that the Islamic Emirate should do whatever they expect and anticipate,
00:19:46and act according to their desires and wishes, that would be a great
00:19:50injustice to the current system and to a geography
00:19:54that has experienced more than five or six decades of war and misfortune,
00:19:58with more than three or four million martyrs, injured,
00:20:00disabled, and handicapped inside Afghanistan. If,
00:20:04in a sense, the international community's definition is why we do not recognize
00:20:08the Islamic Emirate, I think that today the Islamic Emirate
00:20:11controls the geography of Afghanistan. The political geography of Afghanistan is under the leadership
00:20:15of the Islamic Emirate. The borders of Afghanistan are under the control of the Islamic Emirate. If
00:20:18the goal of the international community is to once again
00:20:22monopolize the geography of Afghanistan, to control it,
00:20:26to encourage and entice countries to control the political
00:20:29geography and to threaten their rivals from here,
00:20:32well, that is truly unbelievable and unfair. Today,
00:20:36Afghanistan...
00:20:50wanted to impose all their demands on the people of Afghanistan. Today,
00:20:53for example, Afghanistan's funds are frozen in the World Bank.
00:20:57It is financial support for Afghanistan, but then they say Afghanistan is below
00:21:00the poverty line. If you give Afghanistan's funds to the people of Afghanistan,
00:21:04well, naturally, they can do business. Let's leave that aside.
00:21:07Is it currently acceptable to the people
00:21:10of Afghanistan to follow the West's dictates? Absolutely not.
00:21:14Today, the people of Afghanistan have achieved freedom, they have achieved independence. Today, a five-year-old
00:21:17Afghan child understands all these issues.
00:21:22The people of Afghanistan, or the United Nations and human rights organizations,
00:21:26were lenient towards the people of Afghanistan. Why today are migrants being expelled from their
00:21:30countries? With disrespect, migrants are being expelled from their countries.
00:21:33So, the views regarding Afghanistan are dual views. They have never
00:21:37seen Afghanistan from one perspective. They have never thought that Afghanistan
00:21:41is a member of the international community, that people live here. Today,
00:21:45there is equality, justice, fairness, and everything is taken into account. But because
00:21:49their attention and expectation is that the Emirate will once again
00:21:52incline towards the international community and the United Nations, and adopt
00:21:56a policy of supplication. The people of Afghanistan will not accept a policy of supplication. If
00:22:00they wanted a policy of supplication, why did six or seven superpowers
00:22:04come into Afghanistan? They tasted Afghanistan's wrath here, and finally, their last
00:22:07soldier left Afghanistan, and they themselves said that
00:22:10Afghanistan is the land or graveyard of empires, and they broke their horns here.
00:22:14Today, the people of Afghanistan, more than anything, want unity.
00:22:18Unity has been established among the people of Afghanistan.
00:22:54try to circumvent the people of Afghanistan. They are trying once again to make
00:22:58the people of Afghanistan make sacrifices. They want once again to start
00:23:01the game of factionalism inside Afghanistan. In the past, you
00:23:05saw that there were many factions inside Afghanistan, and they
00:23:09pitted the nation against each other, and they tried to instigate
00:23:12ethnic and religious discord inside Afghanistan. Today, the people of Afghanistan
00:23:16have reached the belief that they stood up on their own, and every
00:29:17region has it that when Afghanistan is safe, naturally
00:29:20the countries of the region are safe. Today, there is stability and peace inside Afghanistan. If
00:29:24the countries of the region want good relations, which most countries
00:29:27do not have with the Islamic Emirate, the door of Kabul is open
00:29:30to them. Come, open an embassy, open a consulate.
00:29:34The people of Afghanistan will welcome them. The current system will welcome them, and most importantly,
00:29:38the conditions are completely favorable. The Islamic Emirate is in the field,
00:29:42it should try to use these current conditions that the Islamic Emirate
00:29:46has achieved. It should use this opportunity. It should always
00:29:49turn challenges into opportunities and have a clear message
00:29:52for those who oppose the homeland, the country,
00:29:56and the system. Today, what is important in the current situation
00:29:59is that, in politics, what is common is that we make our enemies friends, not that we make our friends
00:30:03enemies. With one voice, with all ethnic groups and groups that are outside Afghanistan,
00:30:06and I swear to God, no place is as valuable
00:30:10to them as their country, as their homeland. They want to die in this homeland, build
00:30:14this homeland, and their homeland, wherever in the world they
00:30:17want to have comfort, they are seen with contempt as immigrants.
00:30:21The best opportunity is that today the contact commission with personalities
00:30:25is in Kabul, and efforts should be made to invite those who are currently, in a sense,
00:30:29raising some voices, to come to Afghanistan.
