New statement from the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan: “About the Airspace of Afghanistan”

Countries, under international laws are the sole owners of their state territorial and air sovereignty. Therefore, Islamic Emirate, as the sole legal entity of Afghanistan, is the custodian of Afghanistan’s land and airspace. We recently saw Unites states violating all international rights, law and United States’ commitments to the Islamic Emirate in Doha, Qatar, as Afghanistan’s sacred airspace is being invaded by US drones. These violations must be rectified and prevented.

We call on all countries, especially United States, to treat Afghanistan in light of international rights, laws  and commitments and considering mutual respect and commitments, in order to prevent any negative consequences.
