While sending Eid greetings to Muslims this year, Taliban leader Omar Abdullah has reportedly said that Taliban does not want to interfere with the internal affairs of other countries.

Urging fighters to protect Afghanistan's borders in a statement released on Friday, Abdullah assured the neighboring countries and the world that Taliban only aims to build an independent Islamic regime in Afghanistan and does not intend to harm any other nation, The Express Tribune reported.

The Taliban leader asked the world to reciprocate with the same gesture and not meddle with Afghanistan's internal affairs. He also called on all the fighters in the frontier areas to forge a relationship with the neighbors based on mutual respect.
