Daryo exclusive: "The relocation of representatives of the Pakistani Taliban movement to the north of Afghanistan poses a threat to Uzbekistan," said spokesperson General Dostum

"The relocation of representatives of the Pakistani 'Taliban' movement to the north of Afghanistan poses a danger to Uzbekistan," declares General Abdul Rashid Dostum, an ethnic Uzbek leader and head of the Junbish-e Milli political party. The National Islamic Movement of Afghanistan, also known as Junbish, represents the Afghan Turkic community.

Reports indicate that members of the Pakistani Tehrik-e Taliban (TTP) have been relocated to northern Afghanistan, specifically along the borders with Uzbekistan and Tajikistan.

This development has sparked intense debates across social media platforms.

Responding to the establishment of Waziristan in northern Afghanistan, General Abdurashid Dostum vehemently opposes allowing invaders to occupy the "cemetery of martyrs."

The "National Uprising" party, led by Dostum, denounces this action as a foreign invasion and condemns it as yet another shameful attempt to violate Afghanistan's sovereignty.

Echoing these concerns, Ehson Niro, the press secretary of the "Milliy Junbish" party, reveals that General Abdul Rashid Dostum has submitted a letter to the United Nations, urging them to prevent the relocation of Pakistani Taliban group members to northern Afghanistan.

Niro highlights the potential danger that the movement of "Tehrik-e Taliban" poses to Central Asian countries.

Political expert Asadulla Nadeem, interviewed by "Darya," underscores the strategic threat posed by the "Taliban" movement's decision to bring TTP members to the northern regions of Afghanistan. He suggests that this is driven by ethnic dynamics, as the majority of Taliban members are Pashtuns.

Tensions escalated on June 22 when Uzbeks in the Takhar region clashed with Pashtun settlers from Pakistan in Takhor. Confrontations using sticks and stones erupted between residents of Noabad Seji village in the Khawaja Bahauddin region of Takhar and the incoming Pakistani settlers.

Earlier reports revealed plans to relocate 300 families associated with the "Tehrik-e Taliban" to the neighboring Takhar region, which shares a border with Tajikistan.

The resistance front, led by Ahmad Masood and opposing the Taliban, also expresses concern over the presence of the Pakistani Taliban movement near Tajikistan's border.

In response, the "Taliban" movement dismisses the relocation of Waziristan refugees to northern Afghanistan as an insignificant matter, emphasizing their intention for enhanced control by transferring migrants from the Waziristan region to other areas within Afghanistan.
