Pakistan's Ambassador to Afghanistan Mansoor Ahmad Khan called on Afghanistan Foreign Minister designate Amir Khan Muttaqi in Kabul on Tuesday.

Bilateral cooperation particularly facilitating humanitarian, economic and people to people exchanges between the two countries were discussed during the meeting.

In a tweet, Taliban spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid said that during the meeting, Afghan foreign minister Amir Muttaqi and Ambassador Mansoor briefly discussed issues related to Chaman-Spin Boldak border crossing.
