The Taliban-led government is seeking to expand international relations with the world, while the United States claims that no country will recognize the current regime in Afghanistan.

“We’re seeing this time and time again now — depriving them of educational opportunities, depriving them of their ability to work, depriving them of their ability to participate in the delivery of humanitarian aid that benefits all Afghans,” Patel said, according to Kama Press reports.

However, the Taliban claim that women’s rights are fully protected in Afghanistan and have urged other countries not to interfere in its internal affairs.

However, since the Taliban-led government took power in Afghanistan, the group has intensified its crackdown on women’s rights and freedoms.

National and international organizations have lashed out at the Taliban for its repressive policies. This, they assert, will fuel poverty, unemployment and extremism, harbor terrorists and threaten global peace and security.

Matiullah Wesa, an advocate for girls’ education and founder of Pen Path, was recently arrested by the Taliban.

Over the past decade, Visa, an advocate for human rights and education, has launched an educational program for thousands of girls living in rural Afghanistan, Khaama Press reported.

The United Nations mission in Afghanistan expressed concern over Visa’s arrest and called on the Taliban to clarify the reasons for his arrest and ensure all his legal rights.

Visa’s arrest comes at the start of the new school year in Afghanistan, where Taliban authorities have not allowed girls past the sixth grade to attend school for the third year in a row. (Arnie)
