In a statement from the Taliban office, it was mentioned that there is a good atmosphere of trust between the UN representation and the Taliban, and it is expected that the Taliban’s interaction with the world will be strengthened.
The political officer of UNAMA noted that the organization will present its report on Afghanistan at the upcoming United Nations Security Council meeting.
On the other hand, the Taliban political official added that meetings and discussions will bring them closer to the international community and that the current government of Afghanistan wants to resolve existing issues through dialogue.
The head of the political office of the Taliban’s prime minister, referring to the promulgation of the law on promoting virtue, stated that the Taliban respects human rights in the light of Islam and that laws in Afghanistan are built based on religion; a matter that should not be a concern.
