Pakistani PM Aims for Prosperity in Afghanistan Despite Tensions
21:29 09.11.2023 (Updated: 18:31 10.11.2023) Ties between Islamabad and Kabul are at a decade-long low, but Pakistan's PM is attempting to downplay the situation, stating that the neighboring country is committed to Afghanistan's development.
Pakistan's caretaker Prime Minister Anwaar-ul-Haq Kakar said that Islamabad was working to "build a peaceful, prosperous and interconnected Afghanistan" on Thursday.
"Connectivity projects CASA-1000, Trans-Afghan railway, Turkmenistan–Afghanistan–Pakistan–India Pipeline (TAPI) and others are not merely economic projects, they are also strategic investments in our shared future," Kakar said during the Economic Cooperation Organisation (ECO) summit in Uzbekistan's capital Tashkent.
Kakar's statement comes at a time when relations between the two neighboring sovereign states were experiencing frostiness over Pakistan's
decision to deport thousands of
Afghan refugees.
According to Pakistan government estimates, nearly 4.4 million Afghan citizens were living in the neighboring Islamic nation, out of which 1.7 million were undocumented.
Since Islamabad set a November 1 deadline for undocumented Afghans to move to their country, approximately 300,000 Afghans have left Pakistan, latest reports suggested.
The toughening of Pakistan's stance on Afghan refugees comes amid tensions between the two estranged allies after Islamabad
accused Kabul of sheltering Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan* (TTP) militants.
