FM urges for capacity building of Afghan authorities to counter terrorism

Foreign Minister Bilawal Bhutto Zardari has urged the international community to help in capacity building of the Afghan interim authorities to take on threats of terrorism.

Taking part in a panel discussion in Munich Security Conference, he said that the international community wanted the Afghan interim government to live up to its obligations and commitments in areas like women education, all-inclusive government and tackling of potential threats from terrorism, emanating from terrorist groups of Daesh, TTP and Al Qaeda.

Bilawal said the global community should convince the Afghan interim government to take on the threat of terrorism and demonstrate its will.

He said Pakistan had helped Afghanistan in the past and would continue to do so as it had hosted the largest number of Afghan refugees on its soil.

The foreign minister reiterated that a peaceful Afghanistan is vital for the stability of the region and the international community must play its role in this regard.
