He was speaking at the 2nd Tehran Security Conference in Tehran. The Advisor said decades old conflict in neighbouring Afghanistan has created problems for the neighbouring countries and threatened peace and security of the region and beyond.

He said regional issues should be addressed within a framework of cooperation and collaboration instead of competition and confrontation.
