The acting minister of Interior, Sirajuddin Haqqani, in a meeting with Tadamichi Yamamoto, the former head of the UN Assistance Mission in Afghanistan (UNAMA), and the president of Sasakawa Peace Foundation, Atsushi Sunami, said that restrictions imposed by foreigners are causing the tragedy of humanitarian needs.
According to the statement, Sirajuddin Haqqani said: “The visit of experts from Sasakawa Peace Foundation was positive and we hope that these organizations will present a real picture of the country’s situation to others and that prolonged political issues can be resolved through dialogue, understanding and bilateral relations.”

Abdul Mateen Qani noted that Atsushi Sunami also said that Afghanistan’s problems can be solved by considering different ways and that the existing gap between Afghanistan and the world will dissolve.
“I’m sure that the international community will be obliged to interact with the Islamic Emirate, recognize it, and remove their leaders’ name from the black list, due to the ongoing work in the construction and other sections,” said Gul Mohammaddin Mohammadi, a political analyst.
