Afghanistan's top leader's spokesperson Zabihullah Mujahid said on Saturday, commenting on Russian President Vladimir Putin's recent remarks emphasizing the necessity of ensuring comprehensive border security between Tajikistan and Afghanistan, that Afghanistan's borders are under reliable protection, and the border with Tajikistan is given priority over other regions.

Tolo News website reported the spokesperson's statement: "Afghanistan particularly values and prioritizes ensuring the security of its border with Tajikistan, even more important than the security of other parts of the national border.
