TEHRAN – Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Ramin Mehmanparast condemned on Sunday the recent terrorist attacks in Afghanistan.

 

According to Reuters, heavy explosions, rockets, and gunfire rattled Kabul on Sunday as Afghanistan’s Taliban launched a “spring offensive” with multiple attacks targeting Western embassies, the NATO force’s headquarters, and the parliament building. 

 

Similar attacks were carried out in a number of other provinces in Afghanistan.  

 

Mehmanparast said, “The Islamic Republic of Iran condemns the recent terrorist attacks in the capital and certain other provinces of Afghanistan, particularly the attacks on diplomatic centers based in Kabul, and believes that dialogue is the only solution to Afghanistan’s security problems.” 

 

“Iran has always been seeking the establishment of peace and security in Afghanistan,” he added.  

 

He also stated, “The Islamic Republic of Iran believes that peace and security can be established in the country through the intensification of the activities of the Supreme Council for the Afghan Reconciliation and without the interference of foreign forces.”
