Fou Gong, China\u2019s representative to the United Nations, has urged the Taliban government to investigate the killing of five Chinese citizens in recent border attacks from Afghanistan into Tajikistan and to strengthen security along the border with Tajikistan.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Investigation into Fatal Border Attacks<\/h2>\n

Fou Gong made this appeal during a recent meeting of the UN Security Council, calling directly on the Taliban administration<\/a> to look into the deaths of Chinese nationals near the Tajik-Afghan border and to enhance security measures in the area. This request follows attacks that occurred on November 26 and 30 in the districts of Shamsuddin Shaheen and Darvoz in Tajikistan, resulting in the deaths of five Chinese workers and injuries to five others.<\/p>\n

Urgent Need to Combat Terrorist Groups<\/h2>\n

The Tajik government has already stated that these attacks were carried out from Afghan territory. The Chinese representative at the UN also called for the Taliban to take active measures to suppress terrorist groups operating in Afghanistan, specifically ISIS, the East Turkestan Islamic Movement (ETIM), and the Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP).<\/p>\n

Taliban\u2019s Commitment to Cooperation<\/h2>\n

In response, Amir Khan Muttaqi, the Taliban’s foreign minister, has pledged to cooperate with Tajikistan in joint investigations regarding these incidents. Previously, Ehsanullah Kamgar, spokesperson for the Taliban’s police command in Badakhshan province, had informed Afghan media that two suspects had been detained in connection with the attack on Chinese nationals. However, no group has claimed responsibility for the attacks so far, and the findings of the investigations have not been officially announced.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
