Jakarta, CNN Indonesia —
Afghanistan was on the verge of collapse in the first 100 days of the regime Taliban returned to power in the country on Tuesday (23/11).
Until now, the Taliban are still struggling to and fro seeking international recognition in the midst of the threat of bankruptcy and economic crisis.
The Afghan Foreign Minister of the Taliban regime, Amir Khan Muttaqi, continues to make diplomatic efforts to get the international community to recognize his group as the legitimate government of Afghanistan.
Citing local Afghan media, Tolo News, the Taliban delegation went to visit various regional countries to build relations with foreign governments. Of these efforts, at least six countries visited Afghanistan and spoke with Taliban officials.
Pakistani Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi, Uzbek Foreign Minister Abdulaziz Kamilov, German Special Envoy to Afghanistan and Pakistan Jasper Wieck, and Dutch Special Envoy to Afghanistan Emiel de Bont are some of the foreign officials visiting Afghanistan.
“The diplomatic and foreign policy of the Islamic Emirate (Afghanistan) is limited to a few neighboring and regional countries for a hundred days. Various countries are waiting to see whether the Taliban will fulfill the commitments they promised earlier or not,” said former adviser to Afghanistan’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Fakhruddin. Qarizada.
During the 100 days the Taliban was in power, there were several meetings the group’s regime had with foreign countries such as Iran, Pakistan, India, Russia and China.
However, not a single country has officially recognized the Taliban regime in Afghanistan.
Most of the meetings held focused on international demands for an inclusive Taliban government, upholding human rights, freedom of expression, the right to work and study for Afghan women, as well as warnings that Afghanistan would not become a hotbed of terrorism again.
Responding to international calls for some of these focuses, the Taliban government has insisted that it has complied with these demands.
“The country and the world have one opinion about the Taliban, which is that they must change, and they (Islamic Emirates) must act according to international standards. However, I think the Taliban deserves to be recognized,” said Political Analyst Abdul Moqadam Amin.
Although the recognition of the Taliban as Afghanistan’s legitimate government has not yet been discussed, several countries are planning to form ties with the group to address the crisis in Afghanistan.
“They may not represent all Afghans, far from it, but they are an authority (in the country),” said British Prime Minister, Boris Johnson, some time ago.
