In the Name of Allah, the Most Compassionate, the Most Merciful 

In the recent past days, a so-called power transfer process has started in some provinces of the occupied Afghanistan in which the foreign invaders hand over security responsibility to the Afghan forces. The other day, the first phase of the power transition from the foreign invaders to the Afghan forces came to completion in Panjsher. Before that, the so-called power handover process had taken place during ceremonial fanfare in Bamyan, Lashkargah, Herat, Laghman and Mazari Sharif.

The demand for transfer of control of the country and the granting of the right of self-determination to the Afghan people was the very principle which the Islamic Emirate has been insisting on from the beginning. However, by perpetrating the invasion, the arrogant Americans deprived the Afghans of this legitimate right, terrorizing them for the past ten years, on charges of demanding the said inalienable right. But now thanks to the Jihadic resistance of the Afghan people, the Americans have been compelled to accept the demand of the Afghan people for their rights, though at least nominally. Therefore, they are evacuating from some provinces under the pretext of transition of power to the Afghan forces. But the Islamic Emirate advises them to speed up the process of complete withdrawal from Afghanistan.

Let’s see how realistic is the so-called security handover process and to what extent it can be called as genuine process of power transfer. A case in hand is Helmand where the security responsibility was transferred to the Afghan forces. But outside the parameters of the city, there are still 10,000 British troops stationed in various parts of the province. If we count the American and other foreign troops, their numbers would surpass tens of thousands of troops. Kabul can be quoted as a second example of the process .The power transfer process will take place there soon, by completing power transition from the foreign forces to the Afghans’. There too, the foreigners have all epicenters of decision-making in their hands– right from the presidential palace down to the ministry of defense, the government departments and ministries.

If the transition process by the foreigners continues on the same pattern in other parts of Afghanistan, this will neither serve the cause of the Afghans nor of the occupied Afghanistan. Similarly, it will not have positive impact on the prevailing situation. So for a complete exit of invading forces and the independence of the country, the nominal handover of security responsibility by foreigners will not suffice.

Yesterday, the new American ambassador in Kabul expressed that the Americans were not interested in establishment of permanent bases and in the occupation of Afghanistan. If they are sincere in what they say, then why they waste time by launching gaudy and ostentatious measures. Afghanistan already has been floundering in the flames of war. It was the Americans who started the war in the first place. But now as the most belligerent Americans are tired of the war, so it is more proper for the Americans to take drastic and realistic steps for the termination of the occupation and for solution of the imbroglio.
