Matthew Miller Asserts Afghanistan’s Critical Importance to the Biden Administration

Published 21/11/2024

RASC News Agency: The spokesperson for the U.S. State Department has underscored that human rights in Afghanistan remain a pivotal priority for President Joe Biden, standing at the forefront of his administration’s policies. Matthew Miller, responding to a question regarding whether the Biden administration’s perceived inaction on Afghanistan’s human rights crisis particularly the denial of education for Afghan women and girls might have contributed to President Biden’s declining political standing, affirmed that human rights have consistently been central to Biden’s agenda since taking office.

 

Miller stated that President Biden, from the outset of his presidency, has actively defended and prioritized human rights in Afghanistan, making it a fundamental pillar of his administration’s focus. This statement follows criticism from some human rights activists who argue that the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan exacerbated an already dire human rights situation. They contend that the withdrawal left key issues unresolved, deepening the crisis and enabling a significant rollback of basic freedoms.

 

Miller further emphasized that Afghanistan remains of both strategic and humanitarian significance to the United States, highlighting that discussions on the country have been a recurring topic within the Biden administration. He remarked, “I will not speculate on specific actions we may take over the next two months. However, as I have previously stated, we are steadfast in our commitment to utilizing every moment to advance the critical priorities outlined by the President. Pakistan also remains an essential partner of the United States, and we anticipate continued cooperation in the coming months.”

 

Meanwhile, a significant number of Afghanistani citizens hold President Biden responsible for the collapse of Afghanistan. They argue that the Doha Agreement, negotiated between the United States and the Taliban, effectively paved the way for the Taliban’s return to power, handing the nation over to the group with devastating consequences.
