Hafiz Naeem-ur-Rehman, the leader of Jamaat-e-Islami Pakistan, has stated that only meaningful dialogue can help improve the strained relations between the Taliban and Pakistan.

He also emphasised that the Taliban must ensure that Afghan soil is not used for attacks against Pakistan.

The Pakistani newspaper Dawn reported on Saturday, August 24, that Hafiz Naeem-ur-Rehman supports dialogue between Pakistan and the Taliban.

During a press conference, he said, "Both sides should always keep the doors of dialogue open."
He added that the strained relations between

Pakistan and Afghanistan are due to the actions of their rulers, not the people of the two countries, who have supported each other for nearly 45 years.

The leader of Jamaat-e-Islami Pakistan stated that the current tension between Pakistan and the Afghan Taliban is a sensitive issue, and meaningful dialogue could help find a solution.

Earlier this year, Mansoor Ahmad Khan, Pakistan's former ambassador to Kabul, announced that relations between Islamabad and Afghanistan under Taliban rule have deteriorated significantly.

The main source of tension between the Afghan Taliban and the Pakistani government is the activities of the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP), which, according to Pakistani officials, carries out attacks on Pakistan's security forces from Afghan soil.
