Baerbock calls Taliban rule step backwards towards the Stone Age

Baerbock calls Taliban rule step backwards towards the Stone Age

German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock has marked the second anniversary of the Taliban’s seizure of energy in Afghanistan with a condemnation of the Islamist group’s governance of the nation.

“Two years of Taliban rule mean two years of regression towards the Stone Age for the people of Afghanistan,” Baerbock mentioned in a press release issued on Monday.

Millions of individuals within the nation have been affected by starvation and nearly each week the Taliban have been taking away one other a part of the liberty of ladies and ladies, she mentioned.

Those accountable shouldn’t assume that their actions stay with out penalties, the assertion continued. “We, as the EU, have put those who have banned women and girls from schools, universities and parks on the sanctions list.”

Baerbock dominated out normalizing relations with the Taliban authorities, which has up to now not been acknowledged by any nation on the earth. This is not going to occur so long as they “continue to exclude half of society from working life and social participation,” she mentioned.

The German department of the rights group UN Women says that the Taliban issued greater than 50 decrees affecting all elements of ladies’s lives between September 2021 and May 2023. Women are at the moment banned from accessing secondary schooling, working within the public sector and quite a few public locations equivalent to parks, it mentioned.

“Through a multitude of strict regulations, women and girls are practically excluded from public life and deprived of their future opportunities,” UN Women Germany’s chairwoman Elke Ferner mentioned in a press release.
