Why the missing text from Taliban govt's 1st statement is more important | Watch

• The new Taliban setup in Afghanistan has sent out its first official message to the world. Taliban’s leadership office in Kabul issued a statement outlining policies of the new 'cabinet’. What the new regime did not say in its statement is of more importance than what it did. Experts, however, noted the statement was silent on a crucial condition in US-Taliban peace deal. The 2020 peace deal calls for the need for Taliban to sever ties with al-Qaeda, other groups. Experts also noted that statement was largely silent on protecting rights of women & children. The statement was signed by the Taliban’s reclusive chief Haibatullah Akhundzada. Akhundzada has been named the supreme leader with final control over religious, political, security affairs.
