ISLAMABAD (Dunya News) - Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi said Pakistan wants durable peace in Afghanistan and will continue to play its constructive role in this regard despite baseless allegations of Ashraf Ghani.

He said the world is appreciating and acknowledging Pakistan s reconciliatory and sincere efforts for peace in Afghanistan.

He said that unfortunately, Pakistan is being blamed for the deteriorating situation in Afghanistan by some Afghan elements. He said the role of these spoilers should be monitored strictly.
