Kabul (Afghanistan) – The ruling Taliban has refused to accept Pakistan’s claim over Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK). In 3 decades, Taliban has assessed Afghanistan borders for the first time. The Border and Tribal Affairs Ministry of Afghanistan has said that they have assessed the official borders of Pakistan, Tajikistan, Jammu-Kashmir and China. Interestingly, Taliban Ministry has not mentioned PoK for Jammu-Kashmir in the statement. This means that Taliban does not recognise Pakistan’s claim over PoK.

The decision of Taliban will directly connect Afghanistan’s border to India’s Jammu-Kashmir region. This will enable both the countries to establish neighbourly relations. India has the same official stand on this issue. India considers Afghanistan as its neighbour through Kashmir.
| Editorial Perspective
A good decision by Taliban. Now they should also pressurise Pakistan to return the PoK to India. |
