Pakistan hopes parties in Afghanistan will find mutually beneficial solution

He noted that Pakistan is the border country most affected by the ongoing actions in Afghanistan.

Hayee also said that Pakistan temporarily closed the border with Afghanistan, but now the border is open.

“Our main goal and expectation is to prevent uncontrolled illegal migration and cross-border movement. Pakistan remains committed to mediating reconciliation in Afghanistan. Pakistan hosted refugees from Afghanistan in the past. Of course, if necessary, Pakistan will do everything possible to help Afghan refugees.
