Chinese Ambassador to Kabul, Zhao Xing, during a meeting with Mawlawi Abdul Kabir, the Taliban Minister for Refugees and Returnees, stated that Beijing would continue its economic cooperation with Afghanistan.
The Ministry of Refugees and Returnees of the Taliban announced on Wednesday, February 26, that China has plans to build a settlement for refugees and returnees.
Zhao Xing emphasized the importance of diplomatic relations between China and the Taliban, highlighting the significance of maintaining strong ties for future cooperation. Mawlawi Abdul Kabir noted that in order to build the settlement for migrants, they would need assistance from humanitarian organizations.
Over the past three years, China and the Taliban have strengthened their economic and political relations, with China supporting the Taliban in various sectors.
This partnership reflects China’s long-term interest in the region, as it aims to solidify its role in Afghanistan’s economy and political landscape.
Amid the ongoing humanitarian crisis in Afghanistan, Iran and Pakistan have been forcibly deporting Afghan refugees, exacerbating the dire conditions many face.
This forced deportation comes as the country struggles with severe instability and economic challenges, leaving many refugees vulnerable to further hardship.
