Former Minister of Immigration: During the Republic, no official called the Durand Line a border

According to him, in all government documents and correspondence, this line was referred to as the "imaginary line," and this issue was one of the main reasons for Pakistan's longstanding hostility toward the previous government and Islamabad's consistent support for the Taliban.


Akhlaqi, in a note published on the social media platform X, while referring to recent talks between Taliban representatives and Pakistan in Doha, stated that Mullah Yaqoob, the Taliban's Minister of Defense, has taken a new step toward resolving the dispute over the Durand Line under the direction of the group's leader.


He warned that although the Taliban lack political and legal legitimacy in the eyes of the international community to represent Afghanistan, a potential agreement between them and Pakistan regarding the Durand Line could be used in the future as a significant document in the historical dispute over this line.


Akhlaqi, citing the statement from Qatar’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs about these negotiations, added that the Taliban's recent action may have long-term consequences for Afghanistan’s stance on the Durand Line.

Noor Rahman Akhlaqi, the former Minister of Refugees of Afghanistan, has stated in his latest remarks that during the two decades of the Republic's governance, there was no document or statement that referred to the "Durand Line" as the official border between Afghanistan and Pakistan.
