Taliban officials held a ‘productive’ dialogue with the US in which Washington urged Afghanistan’s rulers to reverse many of its policies towards women and children. “US officials urged the Taliban to reverse policies responsible for the deteriorating human rights situation in Afghanistan, particularly for women, girls and vulnerable communities,” the State Department said. The US in Qatar also pressed the hardline Islamist group to release detained US citizens. During the talks which were held over Sunday and Monday, the US delegation expressed its support for the Afghan people’s demands for their rights to be respected and for their voices to shape the future of the country, reported news agency PTI.
The Taliban said they wanted travel restrictions lifted for their leaders. The group swept back to power in Afghanistan in August 2021. Since returning to power, the Taliban have barred women from attending university and girls have been barred from secondary education, in a massive blow to America’s legacy in the country.
The US also wants the Taliban to reserve the bans on secondary education for girls and employment of women that it imposed after it came to power. PTI cited the US State Department as saying that it stood for their (Afghanistanis) rights to be respected and their voices to be heard in shaping the future of their nation.
During the talks, the US took note of the Taliban’s “continuing commitment not to allow Afghanistan to be used as a platform for attacks on the United States and its allies”, acknowledging a “decrease in large-scale terrorist attacks against Afghan civilians”. The latter as a part of this said that they want their assets worth $10 billion to be unfrozen that the US froze back in 2021. As per PTI, the meeting included essential talks with representatives from the Afghan Central Bank and the Afghan Ministry of Finance, focusing on the Afghan economy and challenges in the banking sector.
For around two decades, the Taliban were the US’ sworn enemies, however, after the 9/11 attack, they were ousted by the US. Following this, the insurgence to target the US and the troops of its allies, continued.
No country recognises the Taliban administration but they are the de facto government.
