"We express deep concern over the recent escalation of tensions and cross-border hostilities between Pakistan and Afghanistan. Such confrontations neither serve regional peace nor the well-being of the working people of both nations. We firmly believe that both countries sharing deep historical and people’s ties must resolve their differences through dialogue and mutual respect rather than armed confrontation.
The
path of peace and cooperation between people, not militarization, is the
only route toward stability and progress in the region. It is evident
that expansionist rhetoric, religious fundamentalism, and chauvinistic
nationalism do not represent the interests of the toiling masses.
Rather, they serve to divide the people and divert attention from the
pressing socio-economic challenges that both nations face. True peace
will emerge not from the triumph of one state over another, but from the
unity and empowerment of the working people and peace-loving citizens
on both sides of the border.
We therefore urge both governments
to engage in constructive negotiations aimed at addressing cross-border
security concerns, improving living conditions in border regions, and
fostering regional cooperation on the basis of equality and sovereignty.
The people living in the bordering areas of Pakistan and Afghanistan
deserve an end to perpetual conflict and the beginning of an era
grounded in peace, social justice, and mutual respect. In this spirit,
we call upon all progressive and democratic forces to reject imperialist
wars, oppose reactionary politics, and uphold the principles of
solidarity, peace, and self-determination among nations. Only through
genuine cooperation and working people’s unity can the region move
toward lasting stability and prosperity."
