Afghan MP in Exile Says India Strong Enough to Counter Pakistan’s Nuclear and Terror Network

Los Angeles [US] : Afghan MP Mariam Solaimankhil, an exiled member of the Afghan Parliament, called on India on Friday to take a leading role in holding Pakistan responsible for its dangerous nuclear arsenal and decades-long support for terrorism. She said that India is “strong enough” to expose Islamabad’s actions on international platforms and advocate for international sanctions.

In an interview with Reporter, Solaimankhil stated that India can demand accountability for the millions of lives harmed by Pakistan’s “terroristic deep state policies,” while criticising the country’s totalitarian manner of governance.

“India needs to raise this issue on an international level about how dangerous Pakistan is since they have nuclear weapons. How can a government that harboured Osama bin Laden, founded dozens of terrorist organisations, and has repeatedly admitted to doing all of this dirty work still retain nuclear weapons? They should face sanctions and be held accountable. They must be de-nuclearized quickly. And India is strong enough to do so,” Solaimankhil stated.

She also attacked Pakistan’s claims of being a victim of terrorism, pointing to the country’s “military dictatorship” and the generals in Rawalpindi who, she believes, “have made a business out of war.”

She also blasted Pakistan’s efforts to influence media narratives and maintain a veneer of legitimacy while conducting destabilising activities in the area.

“The gig is up for Pakistan. I believe the drapes have been lifted, allowing us to see the entire picture. I believe everyone knows what they are capable of. Pakistan enjoys creating troll profiles on the internet, manipulating the media, pretending to have won, and displaying large figures that are false. That country is not democratic. We know what it is: a military dictatorship. “Now, some people have turned war into a business, and those people are Rawalpindi’s generals,” she explained.

Solaimankhil also emphasised the historical importance of Afghan women, pointing out that women in Afghanistan had the right to vote, own land, and participate in society long before many Western countries, rights that have since been destroyed by decades of political manipulation and conflict. She voiced confidence in “women of the world, especially in India,” as potential bridges to regional peace and security.

“Our women had so much, but it was taken away by politics, war, and this dirty game.” But I don’t count on the UN or other countries, but I do count on women around the world, particularly in India, because I believe we can be bridges to peace,” the exiled member stated.

Her remarks come as tensions along the Durand Line between Afghanistan and Pakistan rise following Islamabad’s attacks on Kabul, Kandahar, and Paktia, with both countries reporting deaths and accusing each other of aggression.
