Mujahid said that the issue will cause mistrust between Afghanistan and the international community.
The Islamic Emirate’s spokesman Zabiullah Mujahid said that the existing travel bans on the leaders of the Islamic Emirate will affect the interim government’s relations with foreign countries.
Mujahid said that the issue will cause mistrust between Afghanistan and the international community.
“We hope that the restrictions which are imposed on the officials of the Islamic Emirate will be removed soon. Doing so will increase the effectiveness of both the agencies and other countries as well as Afghanistan. I mentioned previously that restrictions do not bring any results, so they should not continue on failed paths with no results,” Mujahid said.
In August 2022, the UN Security Council failed to reach an agreement on whether to extend travel exemptions for 13 members of the Islamic Emirate.
“The lack of the extension of the travel ban exemption is because the interim government has not only failed to take steps to form an inclusive government and ensure human rights, but with the ban on female workers in the UN, it turned its back,” said Sayed Jawad Sijadi, a university instructor.
“We still see that whenever there is a need, the UN Security Council allows (Amir Khan) Muttaqi to travel to Islamabad,” said Bilal Fatimi, an international relations analyst.
Earlier, a UN Security Council committee agreed to allow the foreign minister Amir Khan Muttaqi to travel to Pakistan from Afghanistan, where he met the foreign ministers of Pakistan and China.
