The representatives of the neighboring countries discussed the current situation in Afghanistan, emphasized finding solutions to the existing issues, and establishing long-lasting peace in the war-torn country. Continuing the delivery of humanitarian aid to the people of Afghanistan during these difficult times also conversed during the meeting.

 

The meeting was held in the absence of the Islamic Emirate representatives in Tashkent. Besides, several neighboring countries including Russia, China, Iran, and Pakistan have officially handed over the Afghan Embassies to the Islamic Emirate diplomats, but the group is still not invited to such meetings on regional levels.

 

Afghanistan’s neighboring countries have repeatedly called on the Islamic Emirate authorities to respect human rights, lift the restrictions on women and girls attending education, and form an all-inclusive government so that everyone can see them represented in the regime. However, the Islamic Emirate officials have their own priorities and policies regarding these major challenges.
