Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi has said on Monday (20 May) that despite uncertainties that still exist in Afghanistan; peace has become possible for the country.

“After years of war and turmoil in Afghanistan, peace has eventually become possible. The people of Afghanistan must resort to an inclusive dialogue” Wang told reporters after meeting with Tajikistan’s President Emomali Rahmon.

He urged all parties and factions in Afghanistan to reach extensive political consensuses through inclusive dialogue and facilitate the “Afghan-led, Afghan-owned” political process.

“We hope the negotiation between the United States and the Taliban can lead to a deal that is conducive to the process and hopes other multilateral mechanisms on the issue of Afghanistan can play positive roles for the process as well,” he noted.

“As neighbors of Afghanistan, China and Tajikistan have coordinated stances on how to promote reconciliation and reconstruction in the country,” Wang said.

Elsewhere, he went on saying that China has never interfered in Afghanistan’s internal affairs, adding that China is willing to continue to play a constructive role for peace in Afghanistan and make contributions to its reconstruction.
