Khan said that poverty was widespread in the landlocked country even before the fall of its previous government, due to years of corruption in Afghanistan. Speaking on the issue of human rights, he said that it should be understood in the context of the prevailing cultural values in the country.
Khan said, “We must understand… When we talk about human rights, every society is different. Every society has a different idea about human rights and women’s rights.” The Pakistan PM had said, “Kabul’s culture was always different from the rural areas, as we see in Peshawar, where it is completely different from the districts bordering Afghanistan.”

In a press conference in Kabul on Monday, the interim Afghan FM said that he believed that the Pakistan PM’s remarks at the extraordinary session of the OIC were not an insult to Afghanistan.
Muttaki said Khan’s remarks were critical of the previous governments and that’s why the former officials were forced to react. “Imran Khan criticized former (Afghan) governments. I do not see (Khan’s remarks) derogatory as officials from former governments felt obliged to react.”
Muttaki said that if Pakistan’s PM means that a weak Afghan government will not be able to control the threat of Daesh, that is another issue. “I hope that never happens,” he said.
