Anna Ustigneva argued that addressing Afghanistan's challenges requires cooperation with the Taliban. She emphasized the absence of internal conflict since the Islamic Emirate takeover, contrasting it with Western predictions of instability.

Geng Shuang echoed this message, urging increased communication to build trust between the Islamic Emirate and the world. Both representatives requested the UN Security Council to facilitate confidence-building measures.

These statements come as the world navigates the evolving situation in Afghanistan. China and Russia's call for engagement suggests they view cooperation with the Islamic Emirate as key to achieving stability and progress in the war-torn country. (ILKHA)
