TheAPInterview: Afghanistan’s new Taliban rulers are committed in principle to education and jobs for girls and women and have learned from their previous time in power — that's what Taliban-appointed Foreign Minister Amir Khan Muttaqi tells AP kgannon

Muttaqi acknowledged the world’s outrage at the Taliban-imposed limitations on girls’ education and on women in the work force. In many parts of Afghanistan, female high school students between the grades of seven and 12 have not been permitted to go to school since the Taliban took over, and many female civil servants have been told to stay home.

He claimed that the Taliban have not targeted their opponents, instead having announced a general amnesty and providing some protection. Leaders of the previous government live without threat in Kabul, he said, though the majority have fled.Last month, the international group Human Rights Watch published a report saying the Taliban summarily killed or forcibly disappeared more than 100 former police and intelligence officials in four provinces.

He said the Taliban have made mistakes in their first months in power and that “we will work for more reforms which can benefit the nation.” He did not elaborate on the mistakes or possible reforms. Muttaqi said Sunday that the Taliban have kept that promise, along with a pledge not to attack U.S. and NATO forces during the final phase of the withdrawal which ended in late August.

belalkakar_ kgannon What took them so long

kgannon Is this satire?

kgannon Sounds like a Republican, tell them what they want to hear. Reality never enters into it.

kgannon They should not connect us with political games ,Education is our basic human right. So it’s our right to study go to job and build our future. But Taliban is not letting us to go to education centers and they are contrary with girls education.

kgannon Don't trust them! Don't help them. I can see in this man's eyes that he'll betray them. (that means you) Any humanitarians who go into that country will be killed eventually. I can see it in their faces. They have nothing to lose by being ruthless and heartless They're on the run

kgannon

kgannon Lmfaooooooo

Kathygannon There is a big gap between what Taliban propagate and what they implement.Taliban also claimed when they first came to power in 1996-2001 that they open girls' schools and give women their rights. If they are serious, why do they open the schools immediately - I see no obstacle?

kgannon

Kathygannon Proof is in the pudding!

Kathygannon Never.

Kathygannon Paying lip Service to woke causes and symbolic gestures has worked for Democrats. So why not the Taliban ? They figure they got nothing to lose.

Kathygannon More like 'oafs who ride around in trucks all day with assault rifles now want to play diplomatic games on world stage' Next they will want UN recognition (would prob get it too)

Kathygannon They see a twin brother in usa gop maga duplicates

Kathygannon Show us.

Kathygannon Or tis like tsayna w/c says one thing or does d opposite? But is there a diff between Xinjiang n Guantanamo?

Kathygannon And O.J. Simpson is committed in principle to finding the killer(s) of his ex-wife Nicole Brown and her friend Ron Goldman...

Kathygannon They must be ready to hire receptionists at car dealerships...

Kathygannon Well known for their lying.

Kathygannon They've got a bridge in Brooklyn to sell, too.

Kathygannon If they want our aid they need to prove they can be trusted first

kgannon

Kathygannon More like 'Imbciles who ride around in trucks with assault rifles now want to play diplomatic games (& prob want a place on the world stage too, or a UN award ffs)

Kathygannon Did his nose grow during the interview?

kgannon Bullshit

Kathygannon As Rachel Maddow always says, watch what they do, not what they say. If the Taliban is serious, they have a lot of reorientation work to do outside the cities.

Kathygannon So they’ll make sure women do not depend on men?

Kathygannon Unfortunately it’s more talk than reality

kgannon No, the Taliban learned not to attack or harbor terrorists that will attack The West and then they can treat women and minority groups less than human.

kgannon But it’s the Taliban, so… we don’t believe it.

kgannon Greatest trader of all time Geoffreypreud . I never believed it until I experienced it. For a start I deposited $680 to test the waters, in few days I got a return of $2,900. Thanks Geoffrey

kgannon

They'll 'allow' girls to be educated because it's stipulation to get international aid released to keep their people from starving. The world see their oppression of women from afar.

Kathygannon 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

kgannon 😉

kgannon Talibans are way more moderate than our Putin like republicans

kgannon Trust us bro

kgannon

kgannon

kgannon Yeah file under, lies.

kgannon

kgannon Are you helping launder the image of the group that tried to execute Malala? Your headline reads as such. Just don’t. Taliban could change their mission statement to rescuing all the homeless puppies in the world & it still wouldn’t make this or them ok

kgannon Doubtful.

kgannon

kgannon And I have some waterfront property in Florida to sell you cheap...

kgannon Yeah sure

kgannon He's lying.

kgannon Yeh Taliban-appointed Foreign Minister Amir Khan Muttaqi wouldn't have any reason to lie to an AP reporter huh?

kgannon AP is doing propaganda for the Taliban now 😂😂😂

kgannon Commendable.

kgannon Sure

kgannon Remember that time MBS was paraded around as a modern progressive? This kinda sounds like that time.

kgannon

kgannon Hopefully.
