The foreign ministers of Pakistan, China, and Afghanistan convened in Kabul on Wednesday, marking a significant step in regional diplomacy. This trilateral meeting aims to enhance cooperation in trade, counter-terrorism, and regional security.
Pakistan's Foreign Minister, Ishaq Dar, was welcomed by Afghanistan's Deputy Foreign Minister, Mohammad Naeem, and other officials. Dar was accompanied by Ambassador Mohammad Sadiq and senior Ministry of Foreign Affairs members. The visit includes discussions on bilateral matters between Pakistan and Afghanistan.
The discussions revisit decisions from May's meeting in Beijing, focusing on extending the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor into Afghanistan. India opposes this move due to the passage through contested territories. This meeting, China's first under the current Afghan regime, addresses regional security threats, particularly terrorist groups' presence within Afghanistan.
