Imran wants open border with Afghanistan

Islamabad: Chairman Pakistan Tehrik-e-Insaf Imran Khan has said that it was his dream to see an open border between Pakistan and Afghanistan.

He was talking to the Afghan Ambassador to Pakistan, Muhammed Umer Daudzai, who called on him at his residence on Tuesday.

He said that in the past Pakistani regimes backed different Afghan groups instead of simply supporting what was good for Afghan people. But he hoped that the future would tie up both countries in exemplary ties.

Afghan Ambassador Umer Daudzai told the PTI Chairman that how different agreements were imposed on Afghan people throughout history since the Soviet invasion, including the arrival of US and NATO forces. He said that Afghanistan was not even represented in the resolutions presented in United Nation Security Council about their country.

Afghan Ambassador said that his country has been investing very huge resources in human development including higher education.

The ambassador explained that the forthcoming visit of President Karzai is different from past visits. Afghanistan wants to establish a relationship with Pakistan that is free from any other power, as they have done with Iran. But this has to be done with the whole country not just the government.

Discussion also focused on the new thinking within the Talibans which are more accommodating..
