Richard Bennett, the UN Special Rapporteur for Afghanistan, has strongly urged the international community to officially recognize gender apartheid in the country. He highlighted that the severe restrictions placed on Afghan women require immediate global attention and action.

During his recent speech at the French National Assembly, Bennett emphasized the vital need to bring hope to the citizens living inside Afghanistan. He noted that the active Afghan diaspora could play a crucial role in shaping a better future.

The international diplomat stated that his primary goal in France was to hear the demands and perspectives of Afghan refugees. The parliamentary meeting also featured discussions regarding the continuation of humanitarian visas for civil society activists and journalists.
