Pakistan, Russia Discuss Security Concerns in Afghanistan
Pakistan and Russia held talks on regional security concerns, focusing on terrorism threats and diplomatic efforts addressing instability linked to Afghanistan.
Mohammad Sadiq, Pakistan’s special envoy for Afghanistan, said on Tuesday that he met Albert Khorev to discuss militant groups operating in Afghanistan.
Sadiq wrote on social media that both sides exchanged views on issues of mutual interest, including regional security and cross-border terrorism concerns.
He added discussions also covered threats posed by armed groups operating under the rule of the Taliban and diplomatic efforts to address these risks.
A day earlier, Sadiq also discussed cross-border terrorism concerns with diplomats representing Australia, reflecting Islamabad’s broader regional consultations.
Pakistan has repeatedly raised concerns at the United Nations about militant groups allegedly using Afghanistan territory to conduct cross-border attacks while kabul deny these allegations.
Regional governments remain worried that continued instability in Afghanistan could strengthen extremist networks and threaten security cooperation across South and Central Asia.
