During his meetings, Raisi stressed the importance of cooperation between neighboring countries in order to achieve peace and stability in Afghanistan and to form a comprehensive government that includes all ethnicities and political groups.

Raisi pointed out that Iran has no doubts that the US is in a way or another responsible for the recent terrorist attacks that Afghanistan witnessed.

For his part, Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Saeed Khatibzadeh stressed that the Tehran meeting rejects foreign interference in Afghanistan's political structure.

On Twitter, Khatibzadeh said that "lasting peace and stability depend on the fulfillment of the people's will," and stressed that Tehran's meeting aims to strengthen cooperation and convergence of neighboring countries instead of competition.
