Ashraf GhaniVarmennettu tili

Thank you President Widodo for your visit and your sympathies for the Afghan people -- who have suffered tremendously at the hands of state-sponsored terrorism.

In line with our traditions of hospitality, we have delayed the national mourning (Fatiha) for those martyred until tomorrow, to honor your visit.

We are at an infliction point in our country’s history. We must take decisive and clear steps to bring lasting stability to our country. We can no longer wait for peace to come to us, we must win it through collective national resolve.

Those who consider themselves Muslims and Afghans must now separate themselves, in words and actions, from those barbaric puppets of religious manipulators and intelligence agencies.

Taliban must choose between Islam and terrorism, between humanity and barbarism, between Afghaniat and stogies.

We appreciate the sympathies extended by our international partner nations. Thank you for standing with us. It is also an infliction point for our partners. Afghans expect our partners to condemn and take all possible action against state-sponsor of terrorism.

Islam is for all Muslims. Those who distinguish between Muslims, in their Fatwas, by arbitrary lines for their political gains and legitimize the massacre of Muslims are war criminals and must be sanctioned.

Afghan political elite must rise above petty politics and unite to serve our people and defend our nation and country against state-sponsored, regional, and international terrorism.

I salute the bravery of our security forces, especially the police who are our first line of defense against these cowardly suicide bombers. Reforms in our intelligence services and Ministry of Interior are our top priority now.
