Zabihullah Mujahid, the Taliban spokesperson, said that the "baseless accusations" by Pakistani officials are damaging the relations between the two countries.

Mujahid stated on Saturday, June 1, in an interview with Taliban-controlled Radio Television Afghanistan (RTA), that the insecurity in Pakistan has nothing to do with the group.

He mentioned that although the Taliban have tried to improve relations with Pakistan, "baseless accusations" have not been helpful.

The Taliban spokesperson stated, "We have made every effort to improve relations, but unfortunately, baseless and unjust accusations have not solved any problems."

The spokesperson for Hibatullah Akhundzada, the Taliban leader, attributes the insecurity in Pakistan to the "weakness of the country's security forces”.

According to him, Pakistan must ensure its own security, and "Afghanistan has nothing to do with these issues”.

These remarks by Mujahid came just two days after a Pakistani delegation led by Khurram Agha, Pakistan’s Secretary Interior, travelled to Kabul to share the results of their investigation into the attack on Chinese engineers in the Besham area of Peshawar in Pakistan with the Taliban's Ministry of Interior.

According to a press release from Pakistan's Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Khurram Agha asked the Taliban during his visit to Kabul to arrest the perpetrators of the attack on Chinese engineers, who he claimed had fled to Afghanistan.

In the past three years, Pakistani officials have attributed attacks, particularly the recent attack on Chinese engineers, to the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP), saying that this attack was planned from Afghan soil.
