Afghanistanis eager for greater diplomatic cooperation with the United States, according to which US diplomatic influence, both for its own benefit and for the stability of the region, should be used for a peace that is useful aftergreat exorbitant financial and human costs paid by the United States, said Ghani in an interview with CNN.

The government of Afghanistan must have short-term, medium-term, and long-term relations with Iran, he added, saying that but the imposition of sanctions on Iran has overshadowed bilateral relations.

He noted thattwo million Afghans live in Iran, and the relation between the two countries should be based on mutual interests.
