H.E. Dr. Nasir Ahmad Andisha (Ambassador of Afghanistan to UNOG) speaking during EFSAS Side-event/Webinar - 46th Session of UNHRC
16-03-2021, Amsterdam
His Excellency Dr. Nasir Ahmad Andisha, Ambassador and Permanent Representative of Afghanistan to the UN in Geneva and Former Deputy Foreign Minister for Management and Resources, retraced Afghanistan’s geopolitical trajectory and specifically discussed the modern role of Pakistan. Dr. Andisha opined that the future trajectory of terrorism in the region especially raises concerns for India, also as the close ties between Pakistan and the Taliban could further jeopardize relations between the Afghan and the Indian governments. He also said that if the ‘Khalilzad plan’ succeeds and the Taliban has a strong presence in a future Afghan Government, Pakistan will have an easy but plausibly deniable access to land and to hard-line and battle-hardened Taliban across the Durand line.
