Afghanistan
Russia, Pakistan, China, US working together to ensure Taliban’s pledges implemented, recognition not on the table
2021-09-27
[KhaamaPress] Russian foreign minister Sergey Lavrov said that Russia, Pakistain, China, and the United States are in sync to ensure that the Taliban
...Arabic for students...
abide by the promises they have made.
How?
The Taliban has promised to be respecting human and women’s rights, will not allow extremism in Afghanistan and will establish an all-inclusive government.
Subject to their understanding of Sharia law, which permits none of these things, including any obligation to keep promises made to unbelievers, including those Muslims who do not abide by the Talib takfiri code..
The Russian foreign minister said that representatives of Russia, Pakistain, and China recently visited the Taliban leaders, Hamid Maybe I'll join the Taliban Karzai
...One of the more egregious mistakes of the post 9-11 era...
, and Abdullah Abdullah
...the former foreign minister of the Northern Alliance government, advisor to Masood, and candidate for president against both Karzai and Ghani. Dr. Abdullah was born in Kabul and is half Tadjik and half Pashtun. He also held the meaningless salaried sop position as CEO of Afghanistan, while Ghani was president...
in Kabul after their visit to Doha.

Lavrov said that the caretaker government announced by the Taliban does not reflect the whole Afghan society and added that they are in contact with the Taliban in this regard.
“Hey, guys? You promised to do all the things on this list.”
“Yes, yes, kafir man. But we are still making the transition — it’ll take months and a great deal of money before we have everything organized enough to think about such things. It would go faster if we had more money, though...”
Sergey Lavrov in his UN General Assembly speech also accused the US of hasty decision over its pullout from Afghanistan as there is a large amount of weapons remain which can pose a serious threat.
Only a threat in the hands of those who understand how to use them. Otherwise they’re just future bazaar items,
Russia talks about the implementation of the promises by the Taliban at a time when none of those pledges are implemented yet.

Lavrov Says Taliban Recognition 'Not on the Table'

[ToloNews] Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said on Saturday that international recognition of the Taliban
...mindless ferocity in a turban...
was not currently under consideration.

Lavrov was speaking on the sidelines of the annual gathering of world leaders in New York for the U.N. General Assembly. His comments come after the Taliban nominated a U.N. envoy, setting up a showdown over Afghanistan's seat at the world body.

"The question of international recognition of the Taliban at the present juncture is not on the table," Lavrov told a news conference.

Taliban Foreign Minister Amir Khan Muttaqi on Monday nominated their Doha-based front man Suhail Shaheen as Afghanistan's U.N. ambassador.

Ghulam Isaczai, the current U.N. ambassador who represents the Afghan government ousted by the Taliban, has also asked to renew his U.N. accreditation.

Russia is a member of a nine-member U.N credentials committee - along with China and the United States - which will deal with the competing claims on Afghanistan's U.N. seat later this year.

U.N. Secretary-General António Guterres
...Portuguese politician and diplomat, ninth Secretary-General of the United Nations. Previously, he was the UN High Commissioner for Refugees between 2005 and 2015. He was the Prime Minister of Portugal from 1995 to 2002 and was the Secretary-General of the Socialist Party from 1992 to 2002. He served as President of the Socialist International from 1999 to 2005. In both a 2012 and 2014 poll, the Portuguese public ranked him as the best Prime Minister of the previous 30 years...
has said that the Taliban's desire for international recognition is the only leverage other countries have to press for inclusive government and respect for rights, particularly for women, in Afghanistan.

The ones the Saudis paid for? It was unbelievable that the Saudis let Pakistan have them. This is insh’allah in action.
