According to the spokesperson, the countries agreed that any re-deployment of foreign troops would pose a threat to regional peace and stability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A joint statement issued after the meeting described the move as a troubling attempt by nations that played a role in Afghanistan\u2019s current crisis. Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Guo Jiakun said the declaration also reflects regional countries\u2019 respect for Afghanistan\u2019s sovereignty and independence, as well as their shared determination to cooperate for the country\u2019s reconstruction and stability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This joint opposition comes after U.S. President Donald Trump recently suggested efforts were underway to retake Bagram Air Base. The Taliban administration, which controls Afghanistan but lacks international recognition, sharply rejected the idea. The controversy has sparked concerns over Afghanistan\u2019s security future and the risk of renewed foreign intervention.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>China, Russia, Iran, and Pakistan oppose any return of foreign troops to Afghanistan, warning it threatens regional peace after Trump\u2019s remarks on Bagram.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":295,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4,3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-293","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-politics","category-top-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/atlaspress.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/293","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/atlaspress.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/atlaspress.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/atlaspress.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/atlaspress.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=293"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/atlaspress.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/293\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":296,"href":"https:\/\/atlaspress.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/293\/revisions\/296"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/atlaspress.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/295"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/atlaspress.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=293"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/atlaspress.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=293"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/atlaspress.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=293"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
