No divisions in the Islamic Emirate: Stanikzai

There are no divisions in the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan (IEA) as unity has been a key to its success, Deputy Foreign Minister for Political Affairs Sher Mohammad Abbas Stanikzai has said.

Speaking at a graduation ceremony for students of a madrassa in Kabul, Stanikzai said that the United States is seeking to create divisions among the members of the IEA, but such efforts have failed in the past.

“There is no rebellion and opposition in the Emirate. All the members of the Islamic Emirate, from Amir al-Mu’minin (may Allah protect him) to an ordinary Talib are (united in action and word). There is no problem. We accept every decision issued by the leadership. We consider it obligatory to obey their orders, because we have pledged allegiance to the Amir,” Stanikzai said.

He added that one of the keys to the success of the Islamic Emirate is that it has a united front.

Meanwhile, Shahabuddin Delawar, Minister of Mines and Petroleum, considered the recent rumors about the existence of internal differences in the Islamic Emirate as the work of the enemies of the Afghan people and emphasized that there are no divisions in the leadership of the Islamic Emirate.

Recently, reports circulated by some media outlets suggesting divisions in the Islamic Emirate.
