U.S. Representative to the UN: Taliban Restrictions on Afghanistani Women Are Deeply Concerning

Published 21/09/2024

RASC News Agency: Linda Thomas-Greenfield, the United States representative to the United Nations, has described the Taliban’s restrictions on women and girls as “deeply concerning,” emphasizing that the continuation of these policies exacerbates the situation for Afghanistani women and undermines human rights. On Friday, Greenfield stated on her X account that any meaningful steps toward normalizing relations with the Taliban will depend on the group’s actions, particularly regarding their treatment of women and girls.

 

Two days earlier, this U.S. diplomat noted that conditions for women and girls in Afghanistan under Taliban control are deteriorating. She added that further actions are necessary to hold the Taliban regime accountable and compel it to change its policies. Meanwhile, the Taliban have marginalized Afghanistani women, confining them to their homes. Schools have been closed to them, universities remain off-limits, and they have been denied the right to work. The Taliban oppose education, employment, and professional opportunities for women, framing these issues as internal matters.

 

Since seizing power in Afghanistan, the Taliban have stripped women of their rights, denying them opportunities for both education and work. The group believes that women should remain at home to manage household duties, asserting that the public sphere is reserved for men. Many religious scholars criticize the Taliban’s views and practices as outdated, arguing that the group remains disconnected from societal norms and contemporary realities.
