Iran gives Afghanistan shocker to USA as Trump demands Bagram air base| Taliban| Araghchi| Kabul

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi says Afghanistan sits at the crossroads of Central, Western and South Asia, making its stability and development a “strategic imperative” for the whole region, not just a humanitarian concern. Rejecting “imported” or transregional solutions, he calls for regional consensus and collective wisdom, offers Iranian experience in transport, trade, consular work and energy to build a new cooperation framework around Afghanistan, and envisions the country as an active, well‑connected hub benefiting all its neighbours as new economic corridors and energy axes take shape.
