Amir Khan Muttaqi, the foreign minister of the Taliban government, recently met with UNAMA deputy Georgette Gagnon to emphasize the necessity of Afghan representation at the United Nations. He described this presence as a fundamental right of the Afghan people.
During the meeting, both sides discussed the upcoming United Nations Security Council session regarding Afghanistan. The UNAMA official also highlighted the importance of expanding the international community's engagement and continuing humanitarian aid in the country.
This diplomatic exchange occurs shortly after the UN Security Council extended the UNAMA mandate in Afghanistan for an unusually short three-month period until June 17, following immense pressure from the United States.
