RASC News Agency: The Trust and Stability Movement of Afghanistan has released a ten-point resolution calling for the recognition of the values, demands, and voices of Afghanistani citizens by the current government. The movement asserts its commitment to defending the fundamental rights and civil liberties of the Afghanistani people. In the congress meeting, Mohammad Asif Zaifi was elected as the president of the movement. The inaugural congress of the founding members of the “Trust and Stability Movement of Afghanistan” took place on September 22, in Hamburg, Germany. During this meeting, a resolution was adopted, outlining various demands. The congress also issued a press statement detailing its goals and objectives.
According to the press release: “The founding congress of the Trust and Stability Movement of Afghanistan is composed of committed and reform-minded individuals who adopt a realistic and people-centered approach to the current situation in Afghanistan and its future, considering regional and international developments. The movement aims to establish a foundation for comprehensive trust and stability in Afghanistan through a scientific and thorough analysis of both past and present challenges.” During the inaugural congress, the movement emphasized the rejection of any policies that negate others and stressed the importance of learning from political and historical mistakes to foster dialogue with all political and social parties in addressing Afghanistan’s issues.
With the majority’s approval, Mohammad Asif Zaifi was elected as the president of the movement. Notably, prominent figures from various countries participated in this meeting. It is worth mentioning that this movement had previously held two preliminary meetings of its founders in January 2024 in the German city of Kamenz. In its resolution, the Trust and Stability Movement of Afghanistan prioritizes the defense of freedom as a fundamental goal. It has also emphasized that defending human rights and civil liberties for the Afghanistani people is central to its mission.
This movement emerges at a time when Afghanistan is under Taliban rule, which has stripped citizens of their freedoms, equality, and security. Furthermore, the Taliban’s dominance has led to systematic discrimination, mysterious killings, and the marginalization of various ethnic groups, resulting in a peak of injustice. Reports indicate that under Taliban governance, Afghanistan has become an unsafe place for its citizens, particularly for Tajiks, who face threats of elimination and assassination, compounded by poverty and unemployment.
