"Terrorism and extremism, on one side, is a serious global threat as the plague of the century, on the other hand, its actions are proof that terrorism has no homeland, nation and religion. At the same time, it is a threat to the international community and the lives of every inhabitant of the planet. These catastrophic events have nothing to do with religion, including Islam, and are committed using the name of Islam for dark and biased political purposes."

Founder of peace and national unity, Leader of the nation - President of the Republic of Tajikistan His excellency Emomali Rahmon

Protection of independence and national unity is a sacred duty of every resident of this land, it is a guarantor of peace and tranquility, national identity and stability of the country. Thanks to the wise policy of the Founder of peace and national unity - Leader of the nation, President of the Republic of Tajikistan his excellency Emomali Rahmon, our dear country is steadily developing and the security of the people of the country is ensured.

The Founder of peace and national unity - Leader of the nation, President of the Republic of Tajikistan, Honorable Emomali Rahmon, during his speeches at high-level world conferences expressed: "Today we are all witnesses of terrible and tragic events which are taking place in different parts of the world. The expansion of terrorism and extremism, religious armed conflicts, transnational organized crime and drug trafficking pose a serious threat to the security of our countries. Now the intensification of terrorist and extremist groups and other insurgent movements in hot spots around the world has jeopardized the security of all people of the planet".

The terms "terror" and "terrorism" were first used by a certain group of people in the Great French Revolution of 1793-1797, but it is believed that the word is a modified form of the Arabic word "tarror". In "Culture of the Tajik Language", the word "terror" means bandit and murderer, pickpocket and thief, and means deceiver, cheat. Europeans may have taken the word "terror" meaning terror and bloodshed from the Arabic word "tarrar". Thus, many believe that the word "terrorism" comes from the Latin word "terror," which means "fear and panic." Everyone recognizes this, but the Arabic word for terror and the Latin word for terror have almost the same meaning.

The original meaning of the word "extremism" ( comes from the French word "extremism" and the Latin "extremus"), and its original meaning is extremism, extreme thoughts and actions that go to extremes.

Indeed, terrorism and extremism, like the plague of the century, threaten the security of the world and every inhabitant of the planet, posing no less danger to humanity than nuclear weapons. Day by day, terrorism and extremism have become a global threat and disturb the modern world.

The growth of extremist and terrorist crimes contributes to the expansion of international terrorism, the activation of extremist elements, and the recruitment of young people into the ranks of extremist and terrorist organizations.

Today, terrorism and extremism have acquired an international character, through which superpowers protect their national and state interests.

These phenomena are realized not only in the domestic policy of individual countries, but also in the relations between individual states, which was noted by the Leader of the Nation Emomali Rahmon in his speech: "The fight against terrorism and extremism creates an atmosphere of trust, respect for mutual interests and unification requires all countries of the world to face this common danger. The use of "dual policy" in relation to terrorism and extremism seriously reduces the effectiveness of the international community's efforts to jointly combat these phenomena, on the contrary, creates new contradictions between military and political coalitions and makes the world equal. more unstable. "I have repeatedly stressed from the tribunes of the UN and other influential international organizations that terrorists have no homeland, nationality, religion or creed."

The Leader of the nation, the President of the Republic of Tajikistan, Honorable Emomali Rahmon, on this issue, which is the pain of the day, says: "Today, terrorism and extremism, as the plague of the century, threaten the security of the world and every inhabitant of the planet, and pose no less danger to humanity than nuclear weapons”.

It is worth noting that the Republic of Tajikistan has organized and held several high-level conferences and meetings to combat terrorism and is always at the forefront of the fight against this undesirable plague of time.

It is clear from the above sayings and facts that today every member of society needs to fight terrorism and extremism. Because only in harmony it is possible to fight this undesirable and dangerous phenomenon. People of our civilized society who have a high sense of patriotism, self-consciousness and God-consciousness will never allow the violation of peace and stability in the country.
