Afghanistan Foreign Minister Mohd Haneef Atmar reaches India

Afghanistan Foreign Minister Mohammad Haneef Atmar reached at the Indira Gandhi International (IGI) airport in New Delhi on Monday. He was received by an Indian diplomat upon his arrival.

As per the schedule released by the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA), Atmar will meet with the External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar at the Hyderabad House at 6 pm.

Under the Vaccine Maitri initiative, India had earlier sent COVID-19 vaccine supplies to Afghstan to aid its fight against the virus.

Mohammad Haneef Atmar’s visit to India assumes considerable significance in the light of the Joe Biden-led US administration’s fresh approach to the Taliban peace talks, which includes a larger role for New Delhi.

Afghanistan Ambassador to India Farid Mamundza has termed India as the most reliable regional partner and the largest regional contributor to development.

He thanked the Indian government for providing defence and security assistance by helping with military hardware and providing "much-needed training opportunities to many of our cadets."
