An international conference titled “Afghanistan: Regional Connectivity, Security and Development” was held in Baku, bringing together representatives from the special service agencies of 20 countries.
The event, organized by the State Security Service of the Republic of Azerbaijan (SSS), focused on fostering cooperation to promote stability in Afghanistan.
In his opening address, Chief of the State Security Service, Colonel General Ali Naghiyev, underscored the significance of hosting such a conference in Baku following previous meetings on Afghanistan. He expressed hope that the gathering would contribute meaningfully to the establishment of a centralized Afghan state based on international law and norms.
Naghiyev highlighted the longstanding and trust-based relationship between Azerbaijan and Afghanistan, rooted in deep historical and cultural ties. He reaffirmed Azerbaijan’s commitment to supporting international efforts aimed at promoting political stability and security in Afghanistan.
Emphasizing the importance of global cooperation in addressing challenges such as transnational organized crime, international terrorism, drug trafficking, and illegal migration, Naghiyev called for unified international action. He warned of destructive actors and terrorist groups seeking to exploit instability in Afghanistan and urged coordinated responses to prevent further disruption.
“The goal of this conference is to develop a united stance against those forces that benefit from unrest,” Naghiyev said. “Afghanistan must take its rightful place in the system of international relations, and peace in this country is essential for regional and global security.”
Participants from other nations echoed these sentiments in their speeches, expressing confidence that the event would lay the groundwork for more substantial international initiatives toward peace and stability in Afghanistan. The conference concluded with a collective call for the global community to support Afghanistan’s path toward enduring security and development.
