然而，恕我冒昧，所辩论的喀布尔治理问题是阿富汗的内政，我们期待我们的朋友和世界各地的伙伴尊重这一点，并理解在涉及他国主权时他们面临的局限，正如我们尊重新西兰和全世界所有其他国家的主权一样。在喀布尔的辩论是为了阿富汗的政治稳定，我们的国际合作伙伴应为此感到骄傲。我们必须处理任何可能损害阿富汗政治稳定的问题。
However, with all due respect, the debate over governance in Kabul is an internal matter for Afghanistan, and we expect our friends and partners around the world to respect that and understand their limitations when it comes to the sovereignty of other countries, just as we respect the sovereignty of New Zealand and all other countries around the world. The debate in Kabul is for the sake of the political stability of Afghanistan, of which our international partners should be proud. We will have to address anything that could harm the political stability of Afghanistan.
