Taliban continue talks to establish an inclusive government
Khalil al-Rahman Haqqani, a member of the Taliban’s leadership, said on Monday that discussions are being held to map out a future government that is inclusive of the country’s political and military parties.
Haqqani recently held meetings at the homes of a number of Afghan politicians and called on them to pledge allegiance to the Taliban.
“We (want to) bring together all the political and military parties and unite them to work together to build a better Afghanistan and defend it,” Haqqani said.
However, a number of analysts have called for the immediate formation of a new government in Afghanistan, adding that the Taliban will not be able to succeed in forming a successful government without international support.
“They understand how to make peace, but when it comes to finances, they are financially inexperienced, and face a lack of educated people who can run the country,” said Hashmat Ghani Ahmadzai, former president Ashraf Ghani’s brother.
A number of experts stress that the Taliban and Afghan politicians must act immediately to announce a new government so that Afghanistan’s economy does not collapse.
After the arrival of Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar in Kabul, along with a high-ranking delegation of Taliban, a number of foreign media outlets reported that the Taliban is due to announce the framework of the new government in the near future.
Amir Khan Muttaqi, Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Islamic Emirate, met with Mohammad Nasser Mohammad Al-Sayer, CEO of Kuwait’s Al-Sayer Group.
According to a statement from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Islamic Emirate, the meeting focused on Afghanistan’s current situation, security, stability, as well as opportunities in trade and investment.
Muttaqi described relations between Kuwait and Afghanistan as historical and positive, expressing hope for further expansion of comprehensive ties between the two countries.
Nasser Al-Sayer, expressing his satisfaction with his visit to Afghanistan, said he wanted to establish trade relations with Afghanistan in the future.
He added that his company plans to export fresh and dried fruits from Afghanistan to Kuwait and other markets.
The two sides also emphasized expanding economic and trade relations, strengthening joint cooperation, facilitating travel, and making effective use of investment opportunities available in Afghanistan.
The German government deported 30 Afghan nationals to Kabul on Tuesday on a charter flight from Leipzig Airport.
The German newspaper Bild reported that the migrants were transferred from Leipzig Airport to Kabul this morning.
This is the second group deportation of Afghan nationals since Berlin changed its policy regarding the return of Afghan asylum seekers.
Germany has expanded the deportation of Afghan nationals in recent months. In addition to people with criminal records, asylum seekers whose applications have been rejected are also now at risk of deportation.
Previously, 31 Afghan asylum seekers were transferred from Germany to Kabul on a charter flight.
