“We are seriously concerned about this situation, India and Pakistan are friendly states of Russia,” said Zamir Kabulov, director of the second department of Asia at the Russian Foreign Ministry.
He expressed the hope that "the tension that has arisen will be neutralized as soon as possible."
At the same time, Kabulov noted that the situation in the region will not have a significant effect on the process of Afghan regulation.
“India, of course, is an important player, but how it will affect me is hard to imagine. There are concrete talks between the Taliban and the Americans, and the future of Afghanistan should be discussed by the Afghans themselves, ”the diplomat explained.
On February 27, the Pakistani army reported that two planes of the Indian Air Force were shot down in Pakistani airspace. One of the Indian pilots arrested.
The Pakistan Foreign Ministry explained the air strike as a demonstration of readiness for self-defense.
