Islamabad: The Taliban warns on Tuesday that they will not extend the August 31 deadline announced by Biden administration to withdraw all American forces from Afghanistan and urge the US to evacuate all agreed citizens.
The group statement came a day after a DOHA spokesman Based, Suhail Shaheen, said the decision about the extension outside August 31 will be made by the top leadership of Taliban.
Allies have warned they will not be able to evacuate all who fled the Taliban.
end of month.
Overcoming Presser in Kabul on Tuesday, Taliban spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid said that they would block Afghanistan trying to leave the country from traveling to Kabul Airport.
“The road that ends at Kabul Airport has been blocked.
Foreigners can pass it, but Afghans are not permitted to take the road,” Mujahid said, without clarifying how long the policy applies.
He urged the crowd of Afghans who resembled the airport with the hope of leaving the country instead of home, saying that the Taliban would “guarantee their security,” and noted that there was no list of people targeted for retaliation.
But the previous witnesses described the salban’s hard action on those who protested the group.
The Taliban was also actively looking for Afghanistan who worked with US and NATO troops.
Mujahid also asked the US “not to encourage the Afghans to escape from their country,” added, “this country needs doctors, engineers and those who are educated – we need this talent.” He said he escaped from Afghanistan that their lives would be in danger abroad.
“Foreigners will not care about you,” he said.
Mujahid also said that extending deadlines outside August 31 will be a unilateral decision by the US against the agreement with the Taliban.
“We will not let them stay longer and call them to be evacuated on the final date,” he said.
Mujahid also asked women to stay at home for now, for their own safety.
“After the security is re-established, you (women) will be able to return to work as usual,” he said.
A spokesman denied the Taliban patrol report that searched home-to-home to find the target for retaliation, said: “We have forgotten the past.” In front of Presser, Mujahid has posted a link to Pashto’s interview from Mullah Yaqoob, the Slain’s founding son of the Taliban rebel movement, Mullah Omar, and part of the top group decision-making board.
Yaqoob, who, like his father, avoided the appearance of the camera, blamed the US and European countries for the crisis at Kabul Airport.
“They have created chaos by inviting people to calm him abroad.
The majority of Afghanista fled to see it as an opportunity to get access to Western countries that many people (illegal immigrants) have tried hard to achieve through difficult, risky and illegal processes, “Yakoob said, adding that it doesn’t make sense to leave the county after the general amnesty was announced.
“Our fight is contrary to invaders and not Afghans …,” said the 32-year-old Taliban leader.
Yakoob blamed the president who was exiled by Ashraf Ghani for the crisis in Kabul, said that the Taliban had a plan and wanted to enter Kabul through negotiations to be followed by amnesty for all.
“But Ghani and his team escaped by cowardly, creating a vacuum security room.
We have entered the city at the request of the locals to restore laws and order,” he said.
