Muttaqi hails OIC meeting on Afghanistan a success

An Afghan delegation led by Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan’s (IEA) acting Foreign Minister Amir Khan Muttaqi has returned to Kabul after attending a special meeting of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) on Sunday in Islamabad, Pakistan.
Speaking to reporters at Kabul International Airport, Muttaqi described his visit as a success, especially as attending delegates agreed to establish a fund for aid for Afghanistan and for having appointed a special representative to Kabul.
Muttaqi said all Islamic countries that attended the meeting unanimously pledged humanitarian aid and development cooperation to the people of Afghanistan.
“At the meeting of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation, all member states unanimously pledged to provide humanitarian assistance and launch development projects,” Muttaqi told reporters.
Regarding the recognition of the IEA government by the international community, Muttaqi said: “It is a well-known fact that when we travel to any country, we are warmly welcomed. We have meetings. With each passing day, the number of foreign embassies in Kabul increases, and our ambassadors and diplomats are sent to other countries.”
Asked about Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan’s remarks on the Daesh threat from Afghanistan, Muttaqi told reporters that Afghan soil will not be used against anyone. He said: “We have controlled Daesh better than anyone [else has].”
Muttaqi said that if Imran Khan meant that a weak Afghan government would not be able to control the Daesh threat, that is another issue and he hopes it will never happen.
Meanwhile, Muttaqi said Khan, who criticized former regime officials, was voicing his personal opinion. He said the remarks about former government officials were not an insult to Afghanistan, and that is why the Afghan government was not reacting.
Muttaqi also said that the Islamic Emirate was trying to establish good relations with countries around the world.
The special OIC meeting, which was held in Islamabad on Sunday, at the request of Saudi Arabia, was attended by representatives of 170 countries and organizations including foreign ministers from Islamic countries.

Female foreign ministers from 17 countries call on IEA to repeal laws affecting women

Female foreign ministers from 17 countries have called on the Islamic Emirate to repeal the laws restricting women and girls in Afghanistan.
In a joint statement issued on Saturday, on the situation of women and girls in the country, the group of foreign ministers denounced the Islamic Emirate’s “morality laws”.
“We denounce and call for the repeal of the Taliban’s (IEA) so called ‘Morality Laws’, which have exacerbated existing restrictions for Afghan women and girls,” the statement read.
“These decrees aim literally to silence Afghan women and girls and confine them to their homes. There is no viable future—no long-term peace, prosperity, or legitimacy—for any state that seeks to effectively erase women from public life.”
In reaction, the Ministry for the Propagation of Virtue and the Prevention of Vice said that Western countries have a double standard on the issue of human rights and are using it as a tool to pressure the Islamic Emirate.
“If such ministry does not exist in an Islamic system or Islamic society, we cannot call it an Islamic system or Islamic society,” Saif-ul-Islam Khaibar, the ministry’s spokesman, said.
“Those who demand the abolition of this ministry are actually acting against Islamic values, religion, nation, and identity of Afghans, which is unacceptable to all. Instead of making allegations against this ministry, they should adhere to human rights in their own laws.”
In their joint statement, the female foreign ministers also said that the Islamic Emirate’s “systematic exclusion of girls from school—including by barring education for girls above sixth grade—deprives millions of women and girls of their right to education.”
“We encourage all countries to advocate for the full, equal, meaningful, and safe participation of Afghan women in discussions on Afghanistan’s future, including in the U.N.-facilitated Doha process,” the statement said.
