TASHKENT: Tajik Foreign Minister Sirojiddin Muhriddin, speaking at a virtual meeting dedicated to Afghanistan, said that Dushanbe will accept only an inclusive government in this country, Sputnik Tajikistan news agency reports today, September 9.

Sirojiddin Muhriddin stressed that Tajikistan will support only the government, which will include all ethnic groups, including the Tajiks of Afghanistan.

“The world community has not been able to restore order in Afghanistan for 20 years and has left tens of thousands of terrorists in this country as a “legacy”.

In this regard, I call on the international community to influence the Taliban and help find a political solution to the current crisis,” the Tajik minister said.
