Meanwhile, other countries including Pakistan have been in confusion due to Taliban’s past.
On the other hand, United Kingdom, France, United States, and others have refused to accept the Taliban government.
The countries have put forward the condition for the Taliban to include women representatives in the cabinet while the 34-member interim cabinet included the prime minister and his two aides, with 20 ministers and 7 deputy ministers but no female representative was announced.
The international community has been pressurizing the Taliban to form a coalition government involving all parties.
