Maulana Fazlur Rehman, leader of Pakistan’s Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam party, has stated that his country is facing difficult circumstances and is faring worse compared to Afghanistan. <\/p>\n
Speaking at a gathering, he remarked that Pakistan is regionally isolated and simultaneously confronting political and security tensions with India, its long-time rival, and Afghanistan. He emphasized that the ongoing conflict between Afghanistan and Pakistan benefits neither side and must be brought to an end.<\/p>\n
Fazlur Rehman urged the involved parties to cease accusations and propaganda against each other. He pointed out that both sides portray themselves as innocent and justify the conflict as defensive, but stressed that such approaches are not solutions to the crisis.<\/p>\n
The leader of Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam also highlighted Pakistan’s attacks against Afghanistan, emphasizing that armed groups are active within Pakistan itself. He called on Pakistani authorities to address internal issues before taking action abroad. He added that the era of justifying war through portraying oneself as a victim is over and that Islamabad’s policies need to be reconsidered.<\/p>\n
Fazlur Rehman announced that his party is ready to mediate efforts to reduce tensions between Kabul and Islamabad, provided that an appropriate environment and conditions are established for such efforts. He also claimed that Western countries are unhappy with the return of the Islamic Emirate to power in Afghanistan and that Pakistan should not base its policies on their wishes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
