Pakistan should either choose friendship or enmity with Afghanistan: Ashraf Ghani

Kabul: Afghanistan President Ashraf Ghani has sent a strong message to Pakistan and said it is time for the neighbouring nation to decide to be eight a friend or an enemy.

“We are fully prepared to protect our soil. This is the time that Afghanistan be an absolute sovereign country and to prove impartiality," Ghani was quoted as saying by Afghanistan Times.

“Taliban have no religious legitimacy to continue war because Islamic scholars have called the war illegitimate," he said.

“If you want welfare, they will also enjoy welfare. It is up to you to choose friendship and hostility. If Pakistan chooses friendship, Afghanistan is ready to cooperate with Pakistan by increasing regional and international cooperation,” Ghani said.
