00:03:34well as the development of
00:04:02says the private sector should play a key role alongside the
00:04:05Islamic Emirate in driving economic growth, increasing
00:04:09production, creating jobs, expanding exports,
00:04:12and financing major development
00:04:15projects. Speaking at a ceremony to sign an
00:04:18agreement for the establishment of a joint stock
00:04:23transportation needs of company, Mr. Brother said the Islamic Emirate is
00:04:26working to create an economic environment
00:04:30that encourages investors to invest with
00:04:34confidence. Meanwhile, Minister of Industry and Commerce, Nuruddin
00:04:37Azizi, said implementing the program would be an important
00:04:41step toward achieving self-sufficiency in petroleum
00:04:45production, adding that current
00:04:48efforts are focused on reducing Afghanistan's
00:04:52dependence on imported
00:04:54fuel.
00:04:57Afghanistan's ambassador to Qatar,
00:05:12Afghan Embassy in Doha, the meeting also focused
00:05:16on cooperation in various sectors, investment
00:05:19opportunities, and trade prospects in both
00:05:23countries.
00:05:26On the other hand, Afghanistan's ambassador to Pakistan, Maulavi Sardar
00:05:29Ahmad Shakeb, says Afghanistan's new phase
00:05:33and the establishment of lasting security in the
00:05:36country are in the interest not only
00:05:41the region and the wider world. Speaking at a ceremony
00:05:45in Islamabad marking the fifth anniversary of the
00:05:4824th Assad, the day of victory, Mr. Shakeb
00:05:52stressed that a secure and stable Afghanistan can
00:05:55create greater opportunities for regional
00:05:58connectivity, economic cooperation, and collective
00:06:01security while contributing to peace and
00:06:05prosperity across the
00:06:06region.
00:06:11The Islamic Emirate has rejected concerns of the Collective
00:06:14Security Treaty Organization over security threats along
00:06:18Afghanistan's borders with Central Asia.
00:06:21Spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid says Afghanistan is
00:06:25firmly safeguarding its borders and has assured
00:06:28neighboring countries that there is no threat from
00:06:32Afghan territory. Here is a detailed
00:06:35story. The Islamic Emirate has rejected
00:06:40the Collective Security Treaty Organization.
00:06:50says Afghanistan maintains a strict control over its borders and has
00:06:54assured all neighboring countries that there is no cause for concern regarding
00:06:58security along Afghanistan's
00:06:59territory.
00:07:02countries should be assured that no negative activities will be
00:07:05allowed. Our security and border forces are seriously protecting the
00:07:09borders and maintaining mutual coordination with those on the
00:07:12other side of the border. Inshallah, there will be no
00:07:16cause for concern. Mr. Mujahid also said that
00:07:20recent clashes near the border with Tajikistan have been resolved,
00:07:23assuring that the Islamic Emirate's border forces are closely monitoring and
00:07:27securing Afghanistan's borders in coordination with neighboring
00:07:30countries. Afghanistan is closely
00:07:34monitoring border-related issues, and no country should
00:07:37be concerned. The problems that occurred some time ago in
00:07:41Badakhshan
00:07:44have been resolved, and there are currently no problems.
00:07:47Meanwhile, some experts consider the concerns unfounded,
00:07:51pointing to the growing trade and economic ties between Afghanistan and neighboring
00:07:55Central Asian countries.
00:07:58Afghanistan is under the rule of the Islamic Emirate, and no group will be
00:08:02allowed to use Afghan territory against neighboring countries. The
00:08:05Islamic Emirate has repeatedly stated that the country's
00:08:09borders are being kept secure and that
00:08:16the Islamic Emirate has consistently maintained that Afghanistan's
00:08:19territory is secure and that it will not allow any individual or group
00:08:23to use Afghan soil against other
00:08:25countries.
00:08:28Meantime, Afghanistan's ambassador to Malaysia, Naqibullah Ahmady,

00:08:40of palm oil production and economic
00:08:43value and trade, as
00:08:46the palm oil industry. During the forum,
00:08:49Mr. Ahmady discussed expanding palm oil trade between
00:08:53Afghanistan and Malaysia, exploring existing
00:08:56opportunities, and strengthening bilateral trade
00:08:59relations.

00:09:10condition of roads, infrastructure projects,
00:09:14transport routes, and the transportation needs
00:09:17of residents. During the meeting, Baghlan officials
00:09:21presented the province's challenges and demands
00:09:24to the minister. Mr. Sun stressed the need to
00:09:27accelerate road construction and rehabilitation
00:09:31projects and give serious attention to the
00:09:35the people in the
00:09:37province.

00:10:51in several districts of Baghlan province will also

00:11:39materials have been rejected at the
00:11:42Islam Qala port. The authorities said the

00:13:58The brave Mujahideen of Afghanistan
00:14:02fought so that the country
00:14:05would not fall
00:14:08into foreign hands, and the Afghan people would be free and economically prosperous. This struggle was not
00:14:12so easy; many Afghans were martyred in this struggle.
00:14:15They
00:14:19did not give up this struggle until
