United Nations: The United Nations (UN) has become very strict regarding the atrocities being committed on women in Afghanistan. The UN political chief on Wednesday responded to sharp criticism that no female representative of Afghanistan was included in the first meeting between Afghanistan’s Taliban rulers and envoys from about 25 countries, saying that we will be in every session of the meeting. Will raise the issue of women’s rights. UN Under-Secretary-General Rosemary DiCarlo, addressing reporters, said the two-day meeting starting on Sunday was an initial effort aimed at encouraging the Taliban to “live peacefully with their neighbours, in accordance with international law, the UN Charter and human rights”. To emphasize the goal to follow.
This is the third meeting of the United Nations with Afghan envoys in Doha, the capital of Qatar, although for the first time the Taliban will attend this meeting. He was not invited to the first meeting and refused to attend the second. DiCarlo said that this meeting to be led by the United Nations will include envoys from the European Union, Organization of Islamic Cooperation, America, Russia, China and many neighboring countries of Afghanistan. The Taliban seized power in Afghanistan in 2021 as US and NATO forces withdrew after two decades of war. Since the Taliban took over, no country has officially recognized them as the government of Afghanistan.
Difficult to recognize Taliban as government
At the same time, the United Nations said that it is impossible to recognize Taliban as the government of Afghanistan because there is a ban on women from studying and working there and they cannot go out without men. When DiCarlo met senior Taliban officials in Kabul in May, he made it clear that the international community was concerned about four things, including the lack of an inclusive government, human rights violations, especially the human rights of women and girls, Including eliminating terrorism and drug trade.
He said, “Issues like inclusive governance, women’s rights, human rights will be raised in every session of the meeting.” DeCarlo said, “These are important issues and we will discuss them again and again.” Human Rights Watch And Amnesty International criticized the UN for not including representatives of Afghan women and civil society in its meetings with the Taliban.
