Ansari also said the government in Ankara was in different ways trying to bring conflicting groups together.
Vice-President Hamid Ansari on Saturday underlined the need to end "foreign interferences" in Afghanistan, saying a lasting solution to the turmoil has be based on a sovereign choice of the government in the country.
Returning from a six-day visit to Turkey, which he described as "very serious and substantive and satisfying", Ansari also said the government in Ankara was in different ways trying to bring conflicting groups together and they have an old relationship with Afghanistan.
The Afghanistan crisis had come up dominantly during Ansari's discussions with the top Turkish leadership in Ankara on October 11.
Ansari said that there are two parts of the Afghan quesion related to the peace process -- that which has be initiated by Afghanistan itself and the other about international interferences which must come to an end.
"There has been regretfully for this reason or that reason a great deal of foreign interference. No solution of Afghanistan problem can be stable unless this foreign interference comes to an end first," Ansari said while replying to a volley of questions on the Afghan crisis.
He said the upcoming conferences on Afghanistan in Istanbul (to which India has been invited) as well as in the German capital Bonn this year will have to address both sides of the problem.
"..first in which the Afghanistan has to take lead and the other in which international committee has to commit itself to the creation of structures and commitments which will elminiate foreign interference in affairs of Afghanistan in its territory," Ansari underlined.
Asked whether he was referring to US interferences, he said: "All foreign interferences. I am saying in all directions. Everybody will need to cooperate with Afghanistan".
