They stressed the importance of responsible restoration of state authority in Afghanistan through an inclusive peaceful dialogue, taking into account the interests of all social, political, ethnic and confessional groups of the country. In the course of the session, it was noted that the political regime in Afghanistan had to be based on the free will of the entire Afghan people.
