Mr Guterres while visiting the local backcountry tents in Kabul said “today I met the people who were fasting and in solidarity with all Muslims of the world I summon my peace and tolerance.”
He stressed that the trip to Afghanistan demonstrates solidarity with the people of Afghanistan and supporting Afghan-led peace process and families that have suffered most from the war.
