Published: 03:21 PM, 16 May, 2025India's foreign minister has said his counterpart in Afghanistan's Taliban government condemned a deadly April 22 attack in Occupied Kashmir which sparked a brief conflict between New Delhi and Islamabad last week.
Indian Foreign Minister Subrahmanyam Jaishankar said that he had a"good conversation" with acting Afghan Foreign Minister Amir Khan Muttaqi on Thursday evening. "Deeply appreciate his condemnation of the Pahalgam terrorist attack," Jaishankar said in a post on social media platform X. Afghan foreign ministry spokesman Hafiz Zia Ahmad Takal said Muttaqi had"expressed hope for further strengthening relations, reiterating Afghanistan's commitment to a balanced foreign policy and constructive engagement with all sides".Last week, India and Pakistan fought a four-day conflict, which sparked global concerns that it could spiral into a full-blown war before a ceasefire was brokered on Saturday. Military exchanges from May 7 left nearly 70 people, including dozens of civilians, dead on both sides. Afghanistan last week warned India and Pakistan that escalation was not"in the interest of the region" after the nuclear-armed rivals exchanged artillery fire.
