RASC News Agency: Zamir Kabulov, Russia’s Special Envoy for Afghanistan, recently announced that the sixth Moscow Format meeting on Afghanistan is scheduled to take place in Tehran, the capital of Iran. According to a report from the TASS news agency published on Tuesday, June 4th, the meeting is set to occur on June 8th.
The fifth Moscow Format meeting was convened in Kazan, Russia, last year during the month of Mehr. Participants in that meeting urged the Taliban to take decisive action against ISIS and other terrorist groups operating within Afghanistan. It is noteworthy that neighboring countries and regional actors have repeatedly expressed concerns about the threats posed by terrorist groups in Afghanistan under Taliban rule.
Previously, Rustam Emomali, the President of the Parliament of Tajikistan, remarked during a meeting of parliamentary heads of the Collective Security Treaty Organization that Afghanistan under the Taliban has once again become a hub for terrorism. Emomali further stated that religious schools in Taliban-controlled Afghanistan are educating “suicide bombers” and noted that more than one thousand such institutions have been established in border provinces.
Furthermore, despite nearly three years of Taliban rule, the group has not been recognized by any country due to its failure to adhere to the Doha Agreement.
