A. M. Shahid (Former Ambassador): During the visit of Minister of State for Foreign Affairs to Afghanistan, she was assured that Afghan soil would not be used against Pakistan. Afghan leadership is committed to good relations with Pakistan. However, some elements within Afghanistan want to create disruption in bilateral relations of Pakistan and Afghanistan. I am sure Afghan government would condemn the recent attack on Pakistan embassy in Kabul and hold proper investigation into it. Pakistan and Afghanistan share a long border and both are intertwined in religious, cultural and social bonds. Hopefully, relations between both the countries will improve over the passage of time.
