Kabul [Afghanistan]Aug 19 (ANI): Taliban supreme leader Hibatullah Akhundzada said on Thursday that he is ready to engage with the international community within the framework of Sharia law.
A high-level gathering of about 2,500 participants, including Islamic clerics, civil society activists, Taliban officials and former Afghan government officials, was held in Kandahar, Tolo News reported.
There was no media coverage during the Taliban top leader’s speech.
Meanwhile, acting foreign minister Aamir Khan Muthage said the Taliban represented Afghanistan in a “better way” around the world.

“No one should test Afghans. Let these poor and proud people live happily,” he said.
Mutaqi said that the Taliban hopes to maintain good relations with all countries, but after 20 years of war with some countries, they cannot expect their relations to return to normal soon.
“Afghanistan will not be a base for conflict between world powers, and Afghan soil will not be used against anyone,” he added.
“There is no land in the country that is not under the control of the Islamic emirate,” said Acting Deputy Minister Mohammad Khalid Hanafi.
“All girls are your girls. It is the desire of all Afghans to make education accessible to them,” said businessman Abdul Samad Madani.
The rally was the second largest since the Taliban took power, after the clergy meeting in Kabul.
Since the Taliban regime took control of Afghanistan, bombings and attacks have become a regular occurrence, and human rights violations have continued unabated, including the ongoing murder of civilians, the destruction of mosques and temples, attacks on women and fueling terror in the region.
The ongoing economic crisis in Kabul has led to abject poverty in the region. Analysts believe that the main reason for the increase in poverty is political change. In addition, with the Taliban regime in the country, many private businesses have ceased operations, affecting the country even more.
Millions of Afghans are on the brink of starvation as the country emerges from a humanitarian crisis. Afghanistan also has the highest level of suffering of any country since 2005.
In addition, the United Nations Mission in Geneva said the latest report by the United Nations Assistance Mission in Afghanistan (UNAMA) revealed a “disturbing and consistent pattern of human rights abuses” by the Taliban.
The United Nations Mission in Afghanistan has released a report outlining the prevailing human rights situation in Afghanistan in the 10 months since the Taliban took over.
The delegation stated that while the report highlighted various aspects of human rights violations by the Taliban, it did not fully reflect the number of violations and abuses reflected in the report, and the full extent of the deterioration in the human rights situation since last August. (ANI)
