KABUL (IRNA) -- Foreign Minister Manuchehr Mottaki said in spite of U.S. presence in Afghanistan for 5 years, terrorism has not been wiped out there and there is no security in that country.

In an interview with private Afghan TV channel "Tolou", Mottaki added, "A few months ago, when UN Secretary General Kofi Annan visited Tehran, he acknowledged that the biggest problem in Afghanistan was lack of security and stability."

Mottaki said those who claim that they are helping Afghanistan should assist the country to create full stability there. Quoting Iran's foreign minister, the TV channel said, "The U.S. is interfering in all countries' affairs."

Mottaki arrived in Kabul on Thursday to sign a MOU on joint economic cooperation with Afghanistan and exchange views with Afghan officials.

During his trip, Mottaki conferred with President Hamid Karzai and Afghan Foreign Minister Rangin Dadfar Espanta and discussed bilateral cooperation and issues of mutual interest with them.
