Reacting to the recent developments in Afghanistan, Secretary of Iran�s Supreme National Security Council (SNSC) said that Islamic Republic of Iran is ready to support Afghan people and their will as in the past 40 years.

In a tweet on Monday, Rear Admiral Ali Shamkhani wrote, "During a visit to #Kabul in 2019, I had a challenging meeting with the President of #Afghanistan. Today, their Defense Minister's sorrowful remarks translated effects of the 20-year occupation by US."

�As in the last 40 years, we support the people of Afghanistan & their will,� he added.



The Taliban effectively sealed their control of Afghanistan on Sunday, pouring into the capital, Kabul, and meeting little resistance as President Ashraf Ghani fled the country, the government collapsed.
