Zabihullah Mujahid, spokesperson for the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan, stated that over the past four decades, the Afghan people have experienced various governments and political structures.
Kabul 24: However, he argued that what was previously promoted as an “inclusive government” failed to deliver stability, peace, or lasting security in the country.Mujahid emphasized that political disagreements and continuous wars have been the primary sources of suffering and hardship for Afghans.
He asserted that true peace and tranquility can only be achieved under a single unified system, with serious commitment and responsibility from all involved. “We have tried different governments; the so-called inclusive systems of the past did not bring stability to Afghanistan.
We witnessed endless wars and misery. Afghanistan needs to live under one unified roof, free from political divisions,” Mujahid said.In the interview, Mujahid also addressed the recently endorsed new Criminal Procedure Code (principles for courts).
He explained that this code aims to clarify judicial processes for judges and facilitate faster, more accurate handling of cases. Compared to previous versions, the new code is more comprehensive, detailed, and practical, making it easier for judges to resolve matters precisely and efficiently.
He added that much of the criticism directed at the code stems from individuals who lack a proper understanding of Islamic Sharia or are influenced by external viewpoints. “The previous criminal principles existed but were general.
The new version is clearer, more detailed, and simpler, allowing judges to address specifics more quickly and accurately,” Mujahid noted.Turning to relations with Pakistan, Mujahid reaffirmed that Kabul seeks neither war nor instability in any country, particularly its neighbor.
He stressed that peace and stability in Pakistan benefit Afghanistan, and the Islamic Emirate’s policy is firmly based on non-interference in the internal affairs of other nations.Samiullah Ahmadzai, a political analyst, commented that the Islamic Emirate has consistently assured it does not interfere in any country’s domestic matters, viewing Pakistan’s issues as internal to that nation.
Amir Mohammad Gran, a former Afghan diplomat in Pakistan, added that Afghanistan has never supported conflict in neighboring countries, as war only brings destruction, human losses, and instability.
Finally, Mujahid addressed the role of the United Nations, stating that the organization should not assume the responsibilities of the Afghan people or impose conditions on the country’s future. Instead, he said, the UN must focus on its own duties and enable Afghanistan, as an independent nation, to exercise its rights within the framework of the organization.
These statements reflect the Islamic Emirate’s position on internal governance, judicial reforms, regional relations, and international engagement, underscoring its commitment to a unified Islamic system for long-term peace and stability.
