The North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) Tuesday asked the Taliban not to let Afghanistan become a breeding ground for terrorism again, otherwise the alliance after its withdrawal still has the military power to strike any terrorist group from a distance.


"Those now taking power have the responsibility to ensure that international terrorists do not regain a foothold," NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg told reporters in his first news conference since the fall of Kabul to the Taliban.
"We have the capabilities to strike terrorist groups from a distance if we see that terrorist groups again try to establish themselves and plan, organise attacks against NATO allies and their countries," he added.
Stoltenberg called on the Taliban to facilitate the departure of all those who want to leave the country, and said that Western defence allies had agreed to send more evacuation planes to Kabul.
