The second day of a meeting of opposition leaders and foreign diplomats was held in Vienna, where participants discussed the extension of cooperation, diplomatic movements and a political roadmap for the future of Afghanistan.
The diplomats were from the US, UK, Austria, Germany, Spain and Norway.
“Today, there was a free discussion and suggestions were made for a roadmap to solve the crisis of Afghanistan,” said Sayed Baqir Mohseni, a participant.
The meeting is the third being held by the Islamic Emirate’s opposition recently.
Some political analysts said that negotiations between the interim Afghan government and its opposition are the only way for improvement of the situation in the country.
“The path to solution is the intra-Afghan dialogue to codify a constitution and form an inclusive and national government,” said Sayed Jawad Sijadi, a political analyst.
“The world has many expectations from us to reach an engagement with the international community,” said Zakiullah Mohammadi, a political analyst.
But the Islamic Emirate urged the host countries to prevent such meetings on their territory.
“Anyone who is disturbing the current peace and security and betraying our people — we want the countries to not allow such meetings to take place because it is hostility with the people of Afghanistan,” said Suhail Shaheen, head of the Islamic Emirate’s political office in Qatar.
Earlier, a similar meeting of Herat Security Dialogue was held in Dushanbe, Tajikistan, where the participants discussed the ongoing situation of Afghanistan.
