This is a moment of pride for the entire country”, he said, the BBC reports.
We want to make sure Afghanistan is no longer a battlefield of conflict. We have forgiven all those who fought against us. Hostiles have reached their end. We do not want foreign or internal enemies”, he said.
He added that they didn't want chaos in Kabul.
Our “Plan was to stop at the gates of Kabul so that the transition process would end peacefully. But, unfortunately, the past government was very incompetent... their security forces couldn't do anything about the security issue. We had to do something. We had to get into Kabul so we could provide the citizen”, the spokesman said.
