While discussing his purview with the media, President Alvi explained that America does not require any increased intelligence presence or a bigger footprint in Pakistan after it leaves Afghanistan in September this year.

He added that Pakistan would assist Afghanistan in rebuilding itself, provided that the talks between Islamabad and Afghanistan go smoothly. “We want peace in Afghanistan,” he declared.

Alvi stated that “Pakistan wants to encourage the people of Afghanistan to come to a solution,” and remarked that Islamabad is doing its part to “influence” and encourage the Taliban to reach a peaceful solution.
