What's new

Afghan Ambassador takes to social media rather than diplomacy. Closed borders is hurting so much.

Its time for some tough decisions

We must close Afghan border forever
They can have Indian friendship
Let them use trade corridor of Iran
We don't need any benefit of trade from Afghanistan
We don't need deaths of innocent people by these Afghan brain washed idiots
Time to kick each n every Afghan citizen from Pakistan
If anyone wants to come to Pakistan than he should get visa and than he can fly to Pakistan
Close all ground routes to Afghanistan
It's enough now people of Pakistan can't see more blood of innocent people
 
They seem desperate to get some people out! Afghan refugees they don't give a damn about but chartered flights!? Who are these high value Afghans to return?
 
Yeah send chartered flights so they can move from border area into city to create havoc with the excuse of leaving the country. Nobody is falling for that.
 
Of course chabahar can be used but than Iran and India need to pay for transport and road maintenance charges, which in case of transit through Pakistan is subsidized by Pakistan govt.


Not only from wahga but also from port Qasim.
Corruption is made by not recording the cargo at receiving end, while it leaves country as exports from Pakistan and this is how its recorded in Afghan books.
Then what are the agencies/ govt doing about it?

Border must be sealed at every point. No more entry points except legal ones. Pak and Afghan are two seperate nations. Nations have borders even amoungst friendly nations. India is working hard to fence its border with Bangladesh.
 
Afghan Ambassador Omar Zakhilwal on Saturday said Pakistan does not have a justification for the continued closure of crossing points on the Pak-Afghan border, and that his country might send in chartered flights to airlift stranded Afghans in case the border is not reopened soon.

In a message posted to his Facebook page, Zakhilwal said he had talked with Pakistan's de facto foreign minister, Sartaj Aziz, to convey that if an opening was not allowed for the return of stranded Afghans within two days, he would ask his government to send chartered flights to lift them.

“This, however, would reflect very poorly [for Pakistan],” he added.

Zakhilwal said the argument presented by Pakistan — that the border closure is intended to stop terrorists from crossing over — does not carry any weight, as “these points such as Torkham and Spin Boldak have been manned by hundreds of military and other security personnel” and have all the necessary equipment and infrastructure in place to prevent such a possibility.

“Continuous unreasonable closure of legal Pak-Afghan trade and transit routes cannot have any other explanation except to be aimed at hurting the common Afghan people,” the envoy said in his social media post, apparently in breach of diplomatic protocol.

Editorial: Torkham hostilities

The envoy emphasised that the closure of crossing points hurts bilateral trade between the two countries, with Pakistan losing more as a result of the closures.

“Pakistan's declining export share in Afghanistan is indicative of that,” Zakhilwal said.

He also said the closure is in direct contradiction to the theme, objectives and messages of the recently-held Economic Cooperation Organisation summit in Islamabad.

Afghanistan’s top envoy said he had raised the issue of at least 25,000 Afghan nationals who had been unable to return to their country due to the closure, and have not been able to return despite repeated assurances in the past few weeks.

He elaborated that he had been given assurances that a partial opening of border crossings will be allowed to facilitate his countrymen, who he claimed had come to Pakistan either for medical treatment or personal visits.




The government had decided to seal the Torkham border crossing for an indefinite period on February 16, in the aftermath of a suicide attack at the shrine of Lal Shahbaz Qalandar which killed 90.

The border was ordered closed for all kinds of communication due to 'security concerns'.

Afghanistan may please arrange chartered flights for all refugees. We will be more than happy to get rid of this menace.
 
Pakistan gov should help this idiot to arrange this airlift after all its in our favor...oh wait a min which afghans this idiot is talking about ? The refugees? Or their assets for terrorist attacks who are now not able to run back to Afghanistan due to closure of border?

Afghanistan don't have any justification about their actions against terrorist camps, dens inside Afghanistan. is Afghanistan taking any action against terrorist inside Afghanistan ? Answer is NOoooo

Pakistan have solid reason to close the pak Afghan border, which are following, Afghanistan is not taking action against terrorist camps, dens and suppportes inside Afghanistan, afghanistan barking attitude toward Pakistan, blaming on Pakistan any time.
now Afghanistan should be happy that Pakistan closed the border so there will be no more terrorism by Pakistan in Afghanistan as they claim Pakistan is involved in different terrorist activities inside Afghanistan (liar), they should thanks to Pakistan that pakistan closed the border instead of crying.

I actually agree with the Afghan ambassador on this occasion. It would be great if he could arrange an airlift for ALL 5-10 million "official & unofficial" Afghans residing in Pakistan. Would be doing us a MASSIVE favour.

Not only from wahga but also from port Qasim.

bigger question is waving cargo unchecked that arrives from india and goes to afghanistan, who gains from it? mian moohdhi nawaz sharif, same mofo who had indians in his sugar mill with unrestricted movements granted in the country!
 
Haye Maa Sadqay Aida Tu Landay Da Donald Trump, airlift wah gee wah.

On the topic, I don't think this border closure is helping us in countering terrorism. Of course if it was done to punish Afghans for their continuous support of terrorism in our country then that makes sense, but I don't think most of the terrorists will be using these border crossings to enter Pakistan.

Around 8 percent of our total exports go to Afghanistan, this is as much as we export to either UAE or KSA. And with are exports already shrinking for the last couple of years, this border closure might further lower them.
