How did the absence of Kabul affect the Moscow meeting?

17 Nov 2022 - 11:43

Afghan Voice Agency (AVA) - Today's View: If we look carefully, the demands raised by the representatives of the countries participating in the "Moscow Format" meeting were exactly the same demands that the "Islamic Emirate" has raised many times.


Mohammad Sadiq, Pakistan's special representative for Afghanistan affairs, said at the Moscow meeting that the international community should cooperate with the Afghan authorities, keeping in mind "a series of priorities". He added that this cooperation should be done especially in cases where the "Afghanistan caretaker government" has shown its commitment to fight terrorism and drug trafficking.
 
He said that sustainable interaction with the Islamic Emirate is still necessary.
 
Yu Xiaoyong; The representative of China also asked America to release the blocked assets of Afghanistan and return them to this country. He considered America responsible and the source of today's problems in Afghanistan.
 
Hassan Kazemi Qami; In this meeting, the representative of the Islamic Republic of Iran for Afghanistan emphasized on the establishment of a comprehensive government in Afghanistan and said that such a government can provide the basis for the recognition of the Taliban government.
 
Representatives of Russia and Uzbekistan also demanded the release of frozen assets of Afghanistan.
 
Meanwhile, the media and critical analysts of the "Islamic Emirate" launched extensive efforts and propaganda to evaluate this meeting against the Taliban and the non-invitation of the representatives of the "Islamic Emirate" to the Moscow meeting as a sign of confrontation and lack of interaction. Participating countries in it should account with the caretaker government.
 
However, if we look closely, the demands raised by the representatives of the countries participating in the "Moscow Format" meeting were exactly the same demands that the "Islamic Emirate" has raised many times.
 
For example, the release of the country's blocked money has been one of the most central requests of the "Islamic Emirate" from America and its allies; because this will greatly help Afghanistan overcome the current crisis situation and will prevent a humanitarian disaster in the coming winter.
 
On the other hand, from the point of view of the Islamic Emirate, blocking the country's assets is an illegitimate action. Because this money belongs to the people of Afghanistan and no country has the right to block and freeze it and prevent its main owners from accessing these financial resources.
 
In addition, the interaction of the world with the government of the "Islamic Emirate" will solve many of the country's problems today and will not allow millions of people to suffer as a result of the isolation imposed on the "Islamic Emirate" by the domination system and colonial powers.
 
At the same time, this interaction helps the international community to address its concerns about fighting terrorism, ensuring security, consolidating stability, participation of ethnic groups and minorities in the power structure, asserting the rights of minorities, respecting the rights of women and girls, through effective channels with a responsible and committed government towards the international community and find constructive ways to solve it.
 
Another important point that was raised in the speech of the representative of China at the Moscow meeting, and without a doubt, other countries participating in this meeting also accept it, was that he held America responsible for the ongoing unrest in Afghanistan.
 
This is the same position that the "Islamic Emirate" also accepts and has raised many times. Because many of the tragedies and crises currently taking place in the country are either the product of 20 years of criminal occupation by the US and its allies, or due to the irresponsible, chaotic and shameful withdrawal of the US and NATO, followed by cruel sanctions. The government and people of Afghanistan were created by Washington and its allies. Therefore, America is responsible for this disastrous situation and must take responsibility and pay its costs.
 
In the meantime, the necessity of forming an inclusive government with the participation of the country's ethnic groups and minorities in the political structure is a position that all the countries of the world support, and even a country like Pakistan, which is considered a known supporter of the Islamic Emirate.
 
Considering these cases, the absence of Kabul in the Moscow meeting did not necessarily affect the results of this meeting, and if the representatives of the Taliban were not present, most of the participating representatives raised the same points, worries and concerns that It was also approved by the Taliban and has been expressed many times by the officials and leaders of the "Islamic Emirate" on different occasions.
