I reset my old phone and got a new one, but now it won't open Apple ID

I don't have my old phone, I reset it and bought a new phone. My old phone had an Apple ID number from Afghanistan, now I am in Pakistan, and no matter what I do, the Apple ID is not working, what should I do?

iPhone 12, iOS 18

Apple ID invalid or no supported Hi, 2 years ago I bought a new iphone and created a new Applie ID, and tried to get rid of the old ID (if I remember correctly). I have kept the old iphone (iphone 7) which is connected to the old ID. I want to use the old iphone and I am trying to use the new ID, but it brings me back to the old ID. I tried to reset the password for the old ID, but it eventually lead me to resetting the password of the new ID on the new phone. I tried to reset the whole iphone setting (old phone), but again it is requiring me to sign in to the old ID first. I tried again and at some point, I received the message : Apple ID is invalid. I understand that the ID has been deleted (intentionally) or deactivated since I have not used the phone for quite a while now, but the problem is that I cannot change the ID to the new one and so cannot use the different functions of the old iphone or update the phone and the apps. what can I do in this situation?! :( Many thanks for any help or tips!

You can try to change the region of your Apple ID first when logging in at appleid.apple.com and after that try to login in the new iPhone again
