Gotitbro how are any of these reference political?
[] [] I request you to go through them once again.
Here is U.S. ambassador claim []:"The United States, as many other countries, have long recognized the Durand Line as the boundary between Afghanistan and Pakistan"
On the contrast there is no source which suggest that Durand line is not an international border apart from objection from Afghanistan. So please do review your opinion and if you believe it is correct then do add them back. Romanov67 (talk) 13:34, 9 November 2018 (UTC)Reply
@Romanov67: I am taking about removing the president's statement and then adding the statement of another politician. Also, there is no need to repeatedly mention that the Afghan leaders formerly accepted the line, of course they did that is why they signed the treaties which is mentioned. What you are adding is already there in the lead. I agree with the international part and have added it. Gotitbro (talk) 14:04, 9 November 2018 (UTC)Reply

How is India’s claim on Pakistani Kashmir related to the Durand Line, an AfPak issue? Not everything about Pakistan involves India. The Indian Claim section doesn’t add anything of relevance and really just seems to exist to shoehorn India into a Pakistan-related article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:202:200:e82f:c052:4a83:9fbf:e00a (talk) 06:04, 3 June 2021 (UTC)Reply
Agree. It is out of place on the page, and doesn't really have any relevance to a line between Pakistan and Afghanistan. If this subject were important, it could have its own article. aaronneallucas (talk) 16:33, 3 June 2021 (UTC)Reply

Wikipedia you are misleading peoples by showing wrong map of India. Jammu Kashmir is the integral part of India (Bharat), Then why are you showing Kashmir and ladakh is a part of Pakistan. Shame on you Wikipedia 152.58.84.235 (talk) 18:10, 29 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

It seems extraneous to place Afghan complaints of coercion in the infobox: otherwise the same could be applied to the page of any border. Should it be removed? ~2026-12252-7 (talk) 20:10, 6 January 2026 (UTC)Reply
