KABUL: The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has announced that diplomats representing the Islamic Emirate began their work at the Afghan Embassy in Oman this past Sunday.
Hafiz Zia Ahmad Takal, the Deputy Spokesperson for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, stated that the reopening of the Islamic Emirate’s embassy in Oman is expected to play a significant role in strengthening political, economic, social, and religious ties between Kabul and Muscat.
“Since that day, the embassy has resumed its activities and services as usual. With the cooperation of the host country and the commencement of the embassy’s operations, this embassy will play a constructive role in strengthening the political, economic, social, and religious relations between Kabul and Muscat,” Zia Ahmad Takal said.
At the same time, some political analysts believe that establishing relations with Islamic countries could positively impact the engagement between the Islamic Emirate and other nations.
Salim Paigir, a political analyst, told TOLOnews: “Oman is one of the countries close to the West. This country can play a major and fundamental role in improving relations between the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan and Western countries, especially the United States.”
Moeen Gul Samkani, another political analyst, said: “If we get closer to foreign countries, it could lead to economic reconstruction in Afghanistan and also create a bridge between the West and Afghanistan.”
According to officials of the Islamic Emirate, 38 embassies and consulates of the interim government are currently active in various countries around the world.
