ISLAMABAD: Pakistan on Thursday vowed not to be a part of any internal conflict in Afghanistan.

According to a statement issued by the Prime Minister’s House, the Afghan conflict brought great suffering for both Afghanistan and Pakistan over the last 40 years and the peace process presented a historic opportunity for peace in the region.

The statement emphasised upon the significance of intra-Afghan dialogue wherein the people of Afghanistan will themselves decide upon the future of their country.

“Pakistan is highly dismayed by the surge of violence in Afghanistan from all sides. The so-called offensives are condemnable and will undermine the peace process. It is not right to seek an edge in dialogue through coercion. Pakistan implores all parties to recognise the importance of the moment and seize it,” the statement said.

According to the statement, Pakistan has committed all diplomatic and security capital for the success of the peace process and the country would no longer be a part of any internal conflict in Afghanistan.
