00:00:48The joint side of the Islamic Emirate, the United Nations, and Iran
00:00:52in Kabul. This issue was discussed during Mawlawi Abdul Kabir's meeting with
00:00:56the head of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees. stated.
00:01:08He added that the UN Commission for Refugees will hold a meeting with Iran
00:01:11to address the problems of Afghan refugees.
00:01:15for reaching
00:01:19a solution. It was
00:01:21a bloody
00:01:25and devastating
00:01:27year. Its consequences were very
00:01:31bloody and destructive.
00:01:32The September 11th incident had nothing
00:01:40to do with Afghanistan,
00:01:43and the tactic used in that incident and the people
00:01:47who were in Afghanistan had no connection. Unfortunately, they made
00:01:50a one-sided decision and Afghanistan was accused.
00:01:53against Islam, against Islamic
00:01:56countries, Afghanistan.
00:03:02In the news, the Ministry of Refugees and Repatriation says that a tripartite
00:03:06meeting between Iran, the United Nations, and the Islamic Emirate
00:03:10will be held in Kabul in the near future. Mawlawi
00:03:13Abdul Kabir, Minister of Refugees and Repatriation, in a meeting with
00:03:17Arafat Jamal, Head of the UN High Commissioner for Refugees, emphasized
00:03:20addressing the problems of Afghan refugees and holding
00:03:24multilateral meetings with host countries.
00:03:27Arafat Jamal said that in October, on the sidelines
00:03:31of an international meeting in Switzerland, the problems
00:03:35of Afghan refugees and their forced expulsion will be
00:03:38discussed. Details will be provided. With the increasing
00:03:42challenges faced by Afghan refugees in host countries, the United Nations
00:03:45announces efforts
00:03:49to hold multilateral meetings and address their problems.
00:03:53A tripartite meeting between Iran, the United Nations, and the Islamic Emirate
00:03:56is to be held in Kabul in the near future.
00:04:04The UN Commissioner will hold a meeting with Iran
00:04:08to address the problems of Afghan refugees
00:04:09in the near
00:04:14future in Kabul, with the participation of Iran,
00:04:18the United Nations, and representatives of the Islamic Emirate.
00:04:22In October,
00:04:46on the sidelines of an international
00:04:50conference in Switzerland, the problems of Afghan refugees were discussed.
00:04:53In order
00:04:56to resolve the situation,
00:04:59it is necessary that these meetings
00:05:02move beyond political commitments and lead to practical solutions
00:05:06for securing the rights of
00:05:08migrants, extending residence permits, preventing
00:05:12forced expulsion, and providing the grounds for their
00:05:15voluntary and safe return. The meetings in Kabul
00:05:19and Switzerland have high capacity and potential for gradually
00:05:22resolving the crisis. However, their success
00:05:26and final effectiveness depend on two factors. First,
00:05:29the will of the host countries to replace
00:05:33gradual, voluntary return with forced
00:05:36and hasty expulsion, and second, the commitment of the Islamic Emirate
00:05:39of Afghanistan and the international community to provide.
00:05:47To solve this crisis, with the cooperation of the government
00:05:50and international organizations, job opportunities
00:05:54and sustainable return routes must be provided,
00:05:57and this is a humanitarian crisis
00:06:01that can be solved
00:06:03through solidarity and collective action to build
00:06:06a better future. Afghan refugees in recent years have faced waves
00:06:10of expulsion from countries and residency problems.
00:06:14In such circumstances, trilateral and quadrilateral
00:06:17meetings between Afghanistan, host
00:06:20countries, and the United Nations are considered
00:06:23important strategies for coordination in addressing the problems of migrants.
00:06:26However, the success of these meetings depends on the implementation
00:06:30of commitments and the creation of specific solutions
00:06:34to support migrants. It
00:08:42will determine the topics for all
00:08:46mosques in the country, and the imams of the mosques
00:08:49will provide detailed explanations to the people, which has been
00:08:52effective in increasing the level of public awareness.
00:08:56Today, September 11,
00:08:58marks the 25th anniversary of the attack on the two
00:09:02trade towers and the Pentagon building in America. This attack in
00:09:062001 became an excuse to drag the United States and other NATO
00:09:09member countries into Afghanistan. The event.
00:09:37The United States of America and its allies
00:09:41launched an invasion and military operation in Afghanistan,
00:09:44an operation that ended the first period of the Islamic Emirate's
00:09:48rule and marked the widespread military
00:09:51presence of NATO member countries in Afghanistan.
00:09:54This incident was exploited against Islam,
00:09:58against Islamic
00:09:59countries,
00:10:02and they attacked Afghanistan with this excuse.
00:10:06They imposed restrictions on Muslims in Europe and America,
00:10:09even changing their immigration policies and social
00:10:13policies. Western countries, because of this incident,
00:10:17in addition to the human and military costs, Afghanistan witnessed
00:10:20the inflow of billions of dollars in foreign
00:10:23aid over these two decades. However, these
00:10:27resources, due to a lack of proper management
00:10:30and the personal goals of external donors,
00:10:33could not sustainably strengthen the foundations
00:10:37of a self-sufficient and production-oriented economy in Afghanistan.
00:10:40After September 11, under the pretext
00:10:44of fighting terrorism, the US occupied Afghanistan.
00:10:46Despite millions or billions of dollars
00:10:50being poured into Afghanistan, unfortunately, nothing
00:10:54was done.
00:11:25It also affected Afghanistan's relations with the world
00:11:28for years. The September
00:11:3211th incident had nothing to do with Afghanistan,
00:11:34and the tactic used in that incident and the people
00:11:38who were there had no connection to Afghanistan. Unfortunately, they made a one-sided
00:11:42decision and Afghanistan was accused.
00:11:45We once again emphasize and clarify that Afghanistan
00:11:48will not allow its soil to be used against any country, and propaganda and advertising
00:11:51in this regard should be stopped.
00:12:09After
00:12:1125 years, September 11 is still considered one of the turning points in Afghanistan's contemporary history, an event that led to war and the presence of foreign military.
00:12:15However, the question about the extent and lasting
00:12:19achievements of this presence for Afghanistan remains
00:12:22. Militarily, heavy human casualties were inflicted
00:12:26on civilians, military personnel, and mujahideen.
00:12:29Millions became internally displaced and external
00:12:32refugees. The continuous war over 20 years
00:12:35destroyed infrastructures and afflicted the young
00:12:39generation with psychological problems. The September 11 attacks
00:12:42in the United States involved the hijacking of four
00:12:46passenger planes and the collision of two planes with the World
00:12:50Trade Center towers in New York and one plane
00:12:53with the Pentagon building. The consequences of which
00:12:57led to the start of the war in Afghanistan.
00:12:59Russian Foreign Minister
00:13:02Sergey Lavrov says that the United States of America, after the September
00:13:0511, 2001 attacks, used the atmosphere of international
00:13:09cooperation and solidarity to expand its geopolitical
00:13:12influence in Afghanistan and other regions.
00:13:16On Wednesday, Lavrov, in an interview with Russian media RBC, accused
00:13:20the US of using international cooperation and UN Security
00:13:23Council resolutions
00:13:25after the September 11 attacks to advance its broader
00:13:28strategic goals. Russia's fresh criticism
00:13:32of the US's
00:13:3420-year military presence in Afghanistan after the September
00:13:3811 attacks. On the occasion of the 25th anniversary of these
00:13:42attacks, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov spoke with Russian media
00:13:46RBC. The US military operation was not only aimed
00:13:49at defeating terrorist groups, but its other goal was to strengthen
00:13:53Washington's political and military presence in important regions.
00:13:57The US used international solidarity and the resolution
00:14:00that authorized military operations more for implementing its geopolitical
00:14:04plans and expanding its influence than for
00:14:08fighting terrorism. The Russian Foreign Minister
00:14:12claimed that a similar approach was observed later in Iraq
00:14:15and Libya. According to him, the US, in these countries,
00:14:19in the name of ensuring international security and combating terrorism,
00:14:23made efforts to change governments and expand its strategic influence.
00:14:27Lavrov made these remarks while Russia has increased
00:14:30its criticism of US foreign policy and NATO's role in international
00:14:34conflicts in recent years. The military presence of international
00:14:38forces led by the US in Afghanistan continued for nearly
00:14:41two decades and ended in August 2021 with the withdrawal
00:14:45of US and NATO forces from Afghanistan. After
00:14:48that, the Islamic Emirate once again took power in Afghanistan,
00:14:52and the US and NATO-backed government fell.
00:14:57The Ministry of Defense says that a delegation from the 209th Al-Fath Corps
00:15:00of this ministry, led by Qari Abdul Wasel Nazari, commander of the 11th Border
00:15:04Brigade of Jozjan, and accompanied by a number of technical officials
00:15:07of this corps, met with the commander of the Imam Karaki Border Brigade
00:15:11of Turkmenistan. This meeting, which was held at the request
00:15:15of the Turkmen side, discussed border area security,
00:15:18better coordination between the border forces of the two sides,
00:15:22and other necessary issues. They also called the relations
00:15:25between Afghanistan and Turkmenistan good and friendly and emphasized
00:15:28the continuation of joint efforts to ensure security.
00:15:32They emphasized
00:15:33it.
00:15:37Mawlawi Sardar Ahmad Shakib, Ambassador of the Islamic Emirate
00:15:40of Afghanistan to Pakistan, has welcomed the decision of the Lahore High Court
00:15:44against the expulsion of Afghan medical students in Pakistan.
00:15:48The Afghan ambassador also welcomed the statements
00:15:51of the Pakistani Ministry of Foreign Affairs on his social media page,
00:15:55according to which Afghan students with valid visas can
00:15:58continue their studies in Pakistan. He said that he hopes
00:16:02Pakistani officials will also continue with this clear,
00:16:06coherent, and practical approach so that Afghan students who are legally
00:16:10registered maintain their legal status and complete their
00:16:14studies without unnecessary delays. The Lahore
00:16:17High Court on Friday suspended the decision of the Pakistan
00:16:21Medical and Dental Council, which had ordered Afghan students
00:16:24studying in Pakistan to return to Afghanistan.
00:16:28Based on the court's order, Afghan students can continue
00:16:31their studies, participate in exams, and return
00:16:35to their dormitories.
00:16:41Some residents of Kabul city say that in recent days, the price
00:16:45of food and other necessities has increased, but they are
00:16:48happy that there has recently been a relative decrease
00:16:52in the price of fuel and gas. At the same time, Kabul Municipality
00:16:55says that price lists have been distributed for all basic
00:16:59materials, including food and non-food items, across the
00:17:03city, and they are regularly monitoring
00:17:05them. In
00:17:07the past week, the price of each liter of diesel and petrol
00:17:11had increased by 6 to 8 Afghanis, but for the past two days,
00:17:15the price of each liter of fuel and each kilogram of gas has decreased by two Afghanis.
00:17:18Kabul residents are happy about this decrease but
00:17:22say that it is not enough and prices should decrease
00:17:25further. They are concerned that the prices of other
00:17:29food and essential items
00:17:30have also increased.
00:17:34Currently,
00:18:53petroleum products in Kabul and across the country are imported,
00:18:57and tensions in the Middle East have affected the price of fuel
00:19:01and caused it to increase. But people say that in some cases,
00:19:04traders hoard, which also affects.
00:19:19The United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian
00:19:22Affairs (OCHA) says that Canada has contributed 1.3 million Canadian
00:19:26dollars to the Afghanistan Humanitarian Fund. At the same time,
00:19:29Jan Egeland, Secretary General of the Norwegian Refugee
00:19:33Council, told Sky News that a lack of funding
00:19:37and the international community's reluctance to engage with the Islamic Emirate
00:19:41have challenged the aid delivery process in Afghanistan. Egeland, who has visited
00:19:45Afghanistan for the fifth time, emphasized the continuation of aid
00:19:48and the presence of diplomats from European and other countries
00:19:52in Kabul and Kandahar. Jahedgi provides details. While
00:19:56OCHA announces new aid from Canada to the Afghanistan
00:20:00Humanitarian Fund, the Norwegian Refugee Council
00:20:03speaks of challenges arising from budget shortages
00:20:07and limited engagement of the international community with the Islamic Emirate.
00:20:10Jan Egeland, Secretary General of the Council,
00:20:13on his fifth visit to Afghanistan, emphasized the continuation
00:20:16of aid and the presence of foreign diplomats in Kabul and Kandahar.
00:20:20My colleagues here
00:20:23say their only hope is that you invest in the future so that aid
00:20:27continues and Muslim individuals and diplomats
00:20:31from European and other countries go to Kandahar and Kabul.
00:20:34Diplomacy and real engagement must happen
00:20:38right here in Afghanistan. Economic experts
00:20:41say that emergency aid is essential to save
00:20:44human lives. However, to reduce
00:20:47the ongoing needs of society, the international community and responsible
00:20:51organizations should invest more in basic infrastructure
00:20:55and job creation. According to them, infrastructure development
00:20:58and strengthening the domestic economy can distance
00:21:01Afghanistan from continuous dependence on foreign aid.
00:21:05Primarily, especially in Afghanistan, humanitarian
00:21:08aid does not solve our problem, but it
00:21:12can alleviate our problem in the short term,
00:21:16but not in the long term, until they dedicate
00:21:50their humanitarian aid to projects that
00:21:53create employment for the people of Afghanistan. According to OCHA
00:21:57statistics, this year 21.9 million
00:22:00people in Afghanistan need humanitarian aid, and to
00:22:04address the needs of 17.5 million people,
00:22:071.7 billion dollars have been requested.
00:22:11However, so far, only 30%
00:22:15of this budget has been secured. The construction of the
00:22:19Nejad intersection in Kabul has progressed by 15%,
00:22:22and the remaining work on this project is also progressing regularly.
00:22:26Kabul Municipality officials say that this project will change
00:22:30the face of the city and significantly reduce the current congestion.
00:22:33Citizens are also happy with the implementation of this project,
00:22:36but add that the work should be carried out more quickly.
00:22:39The Nejad intersection
00:22:46is a busy and congested entry point to Kabul
00:22:50city. The route to all southeastern
00:22:53provinces and the Ghulam Khan port also passes through this
00:22:56intersection. Residents of the eastern areas of Kabul city also
00:23:00have to pass through this area to enter the city. Therefore,
00:23:04the construction of an overpass at this intersection has begun.
00:23:08Citizens say that the implementation of this project can change
00:23:11the face of the city and expedite urban services.
