Pakistan's role in Afghan peace has been acknowledged by the world powers

Dr Khurram Iqbal (Expert on International Relations): Pakistan is trying to mobilize regional support for an Afghan-led and Afghan-owned peace process. It is high time for Pakistan to ensure that Afghanistan does not indulge into civil war after the withdrawal of international troops. Islamabad is taking corrective measures to include regional powers to resolve Afghan crisis peacefully. Pakistan's role in Afghan peace has been acknowledged by the world powers. Despite having limited resources, we have been hosting a large number of Afghan refugees for the last many decades. These Afghan refugees are enjoying all rights and privileges like other citizens of Pakistan. It is very important to invest more on Afghan refugees to make them ambassadors of Pakistan when they return to their country. Pakistan has suffered a lot due to Afghan war. Islamabad has always called upon the international community to take steps for safe return of refugees.
