Repeating Pakistan’s principle stance against the spread of terrorism from Afghanistan -based groups, Pakistan has once again urged the United Nations to stop the country from becoming a center of terrorism, while Tahrik Talban has declared Pakistan (TTP) a global and regional threat.

“We have to make sure that Afghanistan does not become a genocide for terrorists, which threatens not only its neighbors, but also the region and beyond,” said Pakistan’s permanent ambassador to Asim Eftab Ahmed, addressing the United Nations General Assembly on the situation in Afghanistan.

The ambassador’s comments last week last week came a few days after the elimination of at least 30 Indian-backed terrorists trying to enter the Pakistan-Afghanistan border in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa district of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa district of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa last week.

In 2021, especially in the provinces of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Balochistan, the Taliban rulers have witnessed the increase in cross -border terrorist incidents since returning to Afghanistan.

In May 2025, the country saw a slight increase in militant attacks, even when military tensions with neighboring India failed to increase violence by growing extremist groups.

One day ago, the two countries held the opening of the additional secretary -level mechanism between the Foreign Ministry in Islamabad, in which the two sides covered key areas of bilateral interest, including trade and transit cooperation, security and contacts. The two sides recognized terrorism as a serious threat to regional peace and security.

During the hole, the Pakistani party emphasized the need for concrete measures against terrorist groups working on the Afghan soil, saying such groups disrupt Pakistan’s security and hinder regional development.

Spreading the threat of terrorism posed by Afghanistan’s groups, Ambassador Iftikar said that terrorism created from Afghanistan is a serious threat to neighboring countries, especially Pakistan.

“Daesh has targeted de facto officials, while terrorist companies, including al -Qaeda, TTP, and Baloch militant groups, continue to operate from unmanned places in Afghanistan.”

“Afghanistan should not be a safe haven for terrorism against any other country,” the envoy further remarked that TTP, with about 6,000 fighters, has become the largest UN -designated terrorist group working from the Afghan soil.

The diplomat warned that “with a cross -encryption between several terrorist groups, including TTP and Daesh, the TTP poses a threat not only to our national security but also to the region and the world.”

When expressing regret over the continued efforts to defeat the Pak-Afghan borders, the ambassador further reinforced the use of modern weapons, ammunition and sophisticated equipment by terrorists, “In the last two weeks, rapid attacks against Pakistan launched”.

“These events indicate the scale and seriousness of the danger we face. Pakistan will continue to take every possible action to ensure the safety and safety of its people.

“We also have reliable evidence of mutual cooperation between TTP and other groups, such as the Balochistan Liberation Army (BLA) and the Majid Brigade, aimed at disrupting strategic infrastructure and economic development projects in Pakistan,” he said.

“Sadly, the Afghan soil is also used against terrorists, proxy, other countries, especially Pakistan,” Eli said.

‘Rehabilitation of the Afghan economy’

Highlighting that Afghanistan’s problems directly affected Pakistan, the ambassador said that the country hosted millions of Afghans for decades and continued to protect the weak Afghans despite their boundaries.

“Since August 2021, an additional one million non -documents have been crossing in Pakistan, which has also increased other issues, law and order concerns. We think the international community should distribute this burden more equally,” he noted that the need for the Afghan economy’s economy and the need for rehabilitation of the banking system.

“Pakistan is committed to expanding trade and regional connectivity measures such as TAPI, Casa -1000, Uzbekistan -Afghanistan Railways and CPEC in Afghanistan, which can be very helpful in development and peace in Afghanistan and the region.

“For the first time in more than four decades, we have seen the end of the fighting in Afghanistan. It has been nearly four years since the Taliban occupation. With us, with its neighbors and the international community, there is a new hope of a better future of Afghanistan with peace.

“An Afghanistan that respects and nurtures all Afghans, regardless of that gender, race, political affiliation or religion and a prosperous Afghanistan are free from terrorism; regardless of connecting to the global community, it is emphasized that Afghanistan should not be abandoned and practiced as a practical and practical and practicing practice. It should not be abandoned and it should not be abandoned practically and practically.
