Mohammad Sadiq Khan, Pakistan’s special representative for Afghanistan, met a delegation from the United Nations Assistance Mission in Afghanistan (UNAMA) in Islamabad to discuss regional security concerns and cooperation.
Sadiq Khan said in a post on X that the meeting focused on what he described as “cross-border terrorism” and broader regional security challenges posed by militant groups based in Afghanistan.
Indrika Ratwatte, the UN humanitarian coordinator in Afghanistan, and Malick Ceesay, head of UNAMA’s office in Islamabad, attended the meeting.
According to Sadiq Khan, the talks also covered the human rights situation in Afghanistan, recent security developments, trade and wider regional issues.
Sharing a photograph of the meeting on Thursday, he wrote that participants emphasised “the importance of ensuring that Afghan soil is not used against any country” and stressed the need for coordinated regional and international efforts to address shared security threats.
A statement from the Pakistani representative said the meeting highlighted continued engagement and cooperation to promote stability, humanitarian collaboration, counterterrorism coordination and sustainable economic development in the region.
Representatives of the United Nations and Pakistan also discussed the human rights situation in Afghanistan during a separate meeting the previous day.
