Kabul (BNA) Although the international community played a significant role in rehabilitation and development of the war-divested Afghanistan but the country still passes through a critical time in its history.
It`s while Afghan national security forces has taken the security responsibility for maintaining security in the country and also by 2014 foreign forces would pullout from Afghanistan based on the time-frame set for their evacuation.
The holding of presidential and provincial council elections are also set to be held at the meantime so the Afghan nation should take benefit of this golden opportunity provided by the international community and for the successful implementation and realization of the above mentioned objectives should urgently adopt required measures and drew functional mechanisms. Afghanistan after a long period of three decades of conflicts particularly in past decade has hold the support of the world society and the Intl. community has accelerated the momentum of its cooperation and assistance with the war-torn Afghanistan in various spheres and has always expressed its readiness in renovation process of the country. So the Afghan nation should focus on strengthening of military and economy of the country and while these sectors observe progress practical changes would occur in other various fields too and as a result a prosperous and stable future for Afghanistan would be guaranteed. In this crucial occasion the U.S and other industrialist states strong support and cooperation with the war-battered Afghanistan maintains huge importance and the Afghan government should take the benefit of this golden opportunity.
Fortunately Afghanistan has signed strategic agreements with several countries of the world including the United States of America and these governments have assured their long-term assistance with Afghanistan in military, political, economic and other spheres. The U.S has said it will leave behind $6billion of military equipment to the Afghan national security forces and has pledged to train and equip the Afghan air force. It`s while the NATO member countries have also promised and expressed their enthusiasm to assist Afghanistan in military and economy fields. For fostering of economic growth in the country we not only have natural resources and untapped mines worth trillion dollars but also many countries have shown willingness to invest in exploitation of these rich mineral resources.
Many other industrial countries like India and China are also interested to invest in the country and would continue their financial assistance with Afghanistan so Afghans should endeavor to take the benefit of this chance and strengthen their military and economic foundations and if not they better know that the Afghan nation enemies pursue their destructive and terror schemes and further strive for straining of relations between Afghanistan and the international community. So the Afghans nation should be focused and not let the country once again changed to the hub of insurgent activities and defend from the past one decade achievements in well manner.
