In response to queries over the Islamic state recognition, Taliban diplomats have begun working in Afghanistan’s Pakistani missions as of today Thursday 28th Oct. 5he Taliban had taken over the capital of Afghanistan on mid-August.
The Taliban diplomats have begun working in the Afghan embassy in Pakistan’s capital, Islamabad, and at Afghan consulates in other Pakistani cities,
According to two Taliban officials and two Afghan diplomats who spoke to Voice of America (VOA) on Thursday 28th.
Official Taliban notifications issued to the Afghan embassy in Islamabad have been obtained by the VOA.
When asked over WhatsApp by VOA, Pakistan’s ambassador in Kabul, Mansoor Khan, confirmed the issuing of visas to Taliban officials.
These visas have been given to facilitate consular work and visa facilities for Pakistanis visiting Afghanistan for humanitarian work and assisting Afghan citizens in Pakistan,
Mansoor Khan said.
He went on to say that issuing the visas does not imply recognition, but rather facilitation.
In an effort to gain international legitimacy for the Taliban government in Afghanistan, Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan has urged the world community to cooperate with the group in order to avoid a humanitarian crisis and instability in the country.
Sardar Muhammad Shokaib, also known as Mosa Farhad, has taken command as the first secretary in the Afghan embassy in Islamabad, according to a Taliban official who spoke to VOA on the condition of anonymity because he was not permitted to speak to the media.
The Taliban have also assigned diplomats to the Afghanistan consulates in Karachi, Peshawar, and Quetta, Pakistan’s three provincial capitals.
Hafiz Mohibullah, the official stationed in Peshawar, was formally introduced to the personnel and began his responsibilities on Wednesday.
The Taliban Foreign Minister Amir Khan Mutaqqi signed a letter to the Afghan embassy sanctioning his appointment to the Peshawar consulate, which VOA obtained.
Mullah Ghulam Rasool has been transferred to the Karachi consulate, while another senior Taliban leader, Mullah Muhammad Abbas, has been assigned to Quetta, the capital of southwestern Balochistan province.
Even though the ambassadors did not take office until this week, a diplomat at the Afghan embassy confirmed to VOA that the embassy got two letters from Foreign Minister Amir Khan Muttaqi about their appointments in late August.
