international community’s attention in the context of the growing threats and challenges to security and stability in the world. First, the war that has been under way in Afghanistan for more than 30 years continues to be the main destabilizing factor, not only in the region but also in the entire world. More unfortunately, the situation remains tense despite all the measures now being taken by the international community. It is important to underscore, in particular, that today, everyone is sure that there is no military solution to the Afghan problem. Almost all leaders, including those involved in resolving the Afghan issue and the direct military command of the coalition forces in Afghanistan, are of this view. We firmly believe that the Afghan people themselves must resolve their country’s problems. Only through a compromise between the warring parties with the Afghans themselves being involved in that process, as well as the socio-economic recovery of Afghanistan with the help of the international community, will it be possible to find a way out of the current deadlock in Afghanistan’s situation.
