Hezb-e-Islami, the party of former Afghan Prime Minister Gul Badin Hekmatyar, has announced its full support for the Taliban’s interim government.
According to sources, Hezb-e-Islami Hekmatyar said that the Taliban unconditionally support the government. The Taliban was advised to form an interim government first. The Taliban still has many vacancies in the interim cabinet.
Hezb-e-Islami says it supports the Taliban in the face of uncertainty and has been part of an interim cabinet that has struggled for 20 years. Hezb-e-Islami has raised the question of how the Loya Jirga and the constitution of the country will be drafted in the future. Which council will change the parliament?
International powers and other countries are expressing their views on the formation of the Taliban government, and reactions from around the world continue.
The Chinese government says it is ready to maintain contact with Afghanistan’s new government and leader, and we respect Afghanistan’s sovereignty, independence and integrity.
Earlier, a State Department spokesman expressed concern over the Taliban’s announcement of an interim government and said that the Taliban would be tested by their actions, not their words.
Pakistan has reacted to the announcement of an interim government by the Taliban. According to a statement issued by the Foreign Office, Pakistan is reviewing the formation of government in Afghanistan and hopes that the interim Afghan government will work for peace and security.
The spokesman said that the welfare of the Afghan people should be the priority of the caretaker government, adding that Pakistan was committed to a peaceful, stable and independent Afghanistan.
