This refers to the letter ‘Uncertain future’ (Aug 10) by Rahman Rasheed. The writer has highlighted the current chaotic and worrisome situation in Afghanistan. Pakistan wants a political solution to the Afghan issue. The statements of Pakistan’s prime minister and foreign minister reflect their resolve to remain impartial and neutral in this situation. Inviting political parties for a debate on this issue seems to be pointless as the situation is still unclear.
The sitting government, however, should make efforts to gain international support for peace in Afghanistan.
