Kashmir is Pakistan & India's internal matter, says Taliban; India is not relevant

[xyx007]

Google translate mistranslated it to Indian users as "Hindu kHush"

ROLF , make my day bro.

A very smart statement. Washing away the hands before the bombings start in India.

it will be a big insult for the bomb to blast itself on indians. Modi is enough for you guys.

Just like in 1979 Pakistan said, "Russian invasion was an internal matter between Russia and Afghanistan and Pakistan will not help any Afghans while they are being raped by Russain and Afghan forces". wait what?

The strong clarification comes a day after officials monitoring social media noted a spike in posts around claims that a Taliban spokesperson Zabihullah Mujahid said it was impossible to be friends with India unless the Kashmir dispute is resolved.

Suhail Shaheen, the spokesperson for the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan, as the political wing of Taliban calls itself, issued the clarification on Tuesday. (Sourced )

The Taliban on Monday denied claims on social media that it could join Pakistan-sponsored terrorism in Kashmir, underlining that the Taliban was clear that it “does not interfere in internal affairs of other countries”.

“The statement published in the media about Taaliban joining Jihad in Kashmir is wrong…. The policy of the Islamic Emirate is clear that it does not interfere in the internal affairs of other countries.” Suhail Shaheen, the spokesperson for the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan, as the political wing of Taliban calls itself, tweeted on Monday evening.

The strong clarification comes a day after officials monitoring social media noted a spike in posts around claims that a Taliban spokesperson Zabihullah Mujahid said it was impossible to be friends with India unless the Kashmir dispute is resolved. The spokesperson was also claimed to have said that the Taliban would, after capturing power in Kabul, “capture Kashmir from infidels also”.

Diplomats based in Kabul and Delhi told Hindustan Times that the Taliban spokesperson’s clarification came after India worked the backchannels to confirm reports about the group’s approach to India, and on Jammu and Kashmir.


New Delhi was told that the social media posts were fake and did not reflect Taliban’s position.

But analysts have also underlined that the Taliban wasn’t a monolithic body and comprises people holding different beliefs. For example, while the group has deep linkages with the Pakistani deep state, there are also some who favour an independent line.

Since the Afghan Taliban’s top decision-making body Shura is based in Quetta and its sword arm, the Haqqani network based in Peshawar, both in Pakistan, an Af-Pak watcher said, one should not be surprised if there is a tweak in this stance under pressure from Pakistan.


Already, political equations are changing rapidly in Afghanistan with the US all set to withdraw from Kabul. Unlike in the past where Islamabad for decades acted as a proxy for the US during the Soviet-Afghan war, this time Pakistan is riding on China, who in turn has close partners in Russia and Iran. This time, Washington is the common enemy.

While the US has ensured that Ashraf Gani and Abdullah Abdullah have joined hands in power sharing, it hopes that the Tajik-Pashtun leader may sign an agreement with the Taliban as the former has refused to be any party to it.

The Indian initiative in Afghanistan is also at cross-roads as Pakistan based terrorists groups will use Taliban-ruled Kabul to target India without fear of any Balakot. For all the main players, Afghanistan is turning full circle with Pakistan strategically placed in the great game.

This is not at all looking good for India. I extremely worried how many people will die in these coming ISI/Taliban bomb blasts in India.

The news every Indian wants to hear. But ask yourself why would Talibans like India?? Especially after all these years India has supported the Northern Alliance and helped developed Afghan troops who have repeatedly attacked Talibans. This constant Indian need or urge of liked by others makes them irrational .

No Talibans don't like Indians, would they attack India? Most likely no. India needs not worry about Talibans, they never attack enemy outside Afghan soil.

Taliban knows very well that in order to prosper they need to be on good terms with the regional powers. They want to be recognized and have cordial relationship with all major world powers. They are no longer fighting, but governing a country that has very little left and its a long way to prosperity.

Not a fan of the Taliban, but when facing Sanghis, anything is justified.

Afghans don't fit anywhere. They are literally in between. The closest cousin would normally be Central Asia, but even the Central Asians are a different breed when compared to Afghans. Afghans are too different in many respects. War has ravaged their country. It has also altered their culture and way of doing things.

Central Asians are nicer and easier to get along with compared to Afghans. They are just out of their league in every possible way.

there's a hindu kush mountain in Afghanistan, do you know the meaning of Hindu Kush?

I don't care about history much. But I do know about the present situation in Afghanistan, and about the Afghans living overseas. Many refugees in Europe. I have seen with my own eyes why almost no one likes to deal with them. They're not a very enviable bunch, are they?

I don't know why you're so concerned as a Pakistani. They enjoy much better reputation than Afghans for sure.

Close India taliban relations should be a big worry for us. It's like wasting 17 years in a useless war. What is our policy? Are we Seriously allow talibans to join hands with India? Why is foreign office silent and where is deep state? Handle these matters carefully. Don't allow talibans to establish relations with India. Iran is mediator. Harm the mediator. Iran hasn't done any single thing that is good for pakistan.

Nations Do Not Have Permanent Friends or Enemies, Only Interests. unfortunately, we are the only one busy in the ummah chumma business.

you Invest in your(Afghan) people to get the best from your(Afghan) people. Your investment must have strategic thinking which is Pakistan, right? time to pay back the dividends.

Since when India is a regional power???

India is fighting for its own survival, in the years to come, it will only get tough for India.

No where it says “India’s internal matter”
like the headline of this thread .

Absolutely the correct statement for the Taliban as the government of Afghanistan to issue.

Certain things must be said to appease the US before it exits. Once thats done the target will be the Kabul regime. Military once they are on the verge of defeat a political solution comes where the Taliban rule through direct or indrect means. This could be via a sunni style supreme leader (similar to mullah omar or mullahs in iran) or through having veto powers in the constitution.

Once control of Afghanistan is exersised then next target is... Kashmir my 2 cents
