The situation in Afghanistan is deteriorating rapidly. After the withdrawal of the United States from Afghanistan, strategic changes are taking place not only in Afghanistan but also in the entire region. After the withdrawal of the United States and its allies in Afghanistan, the Taliban government came into being Is. But it remains to be seen whether this government will be able to function. The United States has frozen all of the SBP's assets, amounting to billions of US dollars, and at the same time, the economic situation inside Afghanistan has deteriorated. There are long queues in front of Afghan banks. And there are reports that the Afghan people are spending their nights in front of banks and there is no money and if they are in a bank, very little commission is allowed. It would not be wrong to say that Afghanistan is currently on the brink of an economic volcano. In this situation, a few other countries, including Pakistan, have appealed to the international community and the Western world that the Afghan people will not be left alone in such circumstances, because if the Afghan people are left alone, the whole region will be destabilized.

But it seems that the Western world will not be ready to help Afghanistan or remove financial sanctions from them in the near future and in such circumstances anarchy can spread in any country and pomegranate

There should be no doubt that extremism and terrorism arise in the situation of Iran, whether we look at the example of Syria or Libya, or Iraq, we know that as long as there are stable governments in these countries Were doing. Terrorists and extremists were then in control of the countries. But as soon as the governments of these countries were destabilized politically and economically by external forces. These countries became hotbeds of terrorism and extremism. And because of this threat, the role of the countries of this region becomes very important. China, Russia, Pakistan, and Iran can never afford this. That once again terrorism and extremism from the Afghan mainland affect these countries and cause problems. And perhaps in this context, a meeting of the intelligence chiefs of eight countries in the region was recently held in Islamabad, hosted by DG ISI General Faiz Hameed. The stability and security situation was discussed at the meeting. There are several important aspects to holding this meeting. The most important aspect for Pakistan is that the meeting was held in Pakistan, it is clear that not only all the important countries in the region but also support Pakistan's position on the issue of Afghanistan. He also praised Pakistan's efforts in this regard. One more thing that can be deduced from the holding of this meeting in Pakistan is that the military leadership of Pakistan has made and is doing its best to protect the interests of Pakistan. And military diplomacy is being used in the best possible way.

No situation should be used for terrorism against any country. This is a meaningful statement and can be taken to mean that the countries of the region are sending a clear message to India to stop using the Afghan territory against Pakistan for their nefarious political purposes. The uproar in the Indian media following General Faiz Hameed's visit to Kabul last week is a testament to the fact that India's interests in Afghanistan have been somewhat hurt. And India is using all sorts of clever tactics to get rid of its stigma.

However, Pakistan must ensure that Afghan soil is not used against Pakistan under any circumstances. The meeting is also important in light of the recent visit of CIA Director General Burns to Pakistan, and according to credible sources, where he hinted at granting concessions to Pakistan in the event of cooperation with the United States, Pakistan Was also threatened to adopt a strict policy against. The meeting also sent a clear message to the United States that if the United States turns its back on Pakistan, Pakistan has other options to run its affairs. The current situation in Afghanistan is a test for the countries of the region. Therefore, the countries of the region should not leave the Afghan people alone in this situation. This is in the interest of all countries in the region, including Pakistan.
