All 21 members are Taliban political and military leaders, 90% of them from the Pashtun ethnic group, none of them women or urban or rural workers.<\/span><\/em><br \/>\n<!--more--><br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">By Fabio Bosco, September 15, 2021<\/span><br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Taliban representatives had already announced that the new regime would not be neither a liberal nor a workers&#8217; democracy, but a theocratic dictatorship. But there was a sign that other political forces would be included, which did not happen.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The reason is not clear. There are analysts who attribute this all-Taliban formation to accommodate internal disputes. Others believe that is the totalitarian perspective under which the Taliban had ruled the country for five years, from 1996 to 2001.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Imperialist countries criticized this formation as they hoped it to include leaders linked to them such as the former president Hamid Karzai, national reconciliation council representative Abdullah Abdullah or Ahmad Massoud himself, the warlord of the Panjshir Valley (taken over by the Taliban on September 6). The criticism was directed at the absence of women in government as well. (I)<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Iranian regime also criticized the absence of the Hazara Afghans, who are Shiite Muslims, who were persecuted during the first Taliban rule.<\/span><br \/>\n<strong>De facto international recognition<\/strong><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">None of this criticism prevented the imperialist countries, the UN, Russia, all neighboring countries (Pakistan, Iran, China and three former Soviet republics) besides India, Turkey, Qatar, UAE, from diplomatically engaging with the Taliban, which implies de facto recognition of the new regime even if there is still no formal, de jure recognition.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The same ones who stood for democratic freedoms and seemed to be concerned about the oppression of women now, as good capitalists, have no problem in leaving these issues aside to privilege their geopolitical interests.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">US Secretary of State Antony Blinken summed up the issue well when he said he was in direct contact with the Taliban to guarantee three objectives: <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">freedom of travel for both<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> foreigners and Afghans, <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">preventing terrorist groups from setting up in Afghanistan<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, and humanitarian aid in the face of the food and health crisis that tends to become a social catastrophe in the short term.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">President Joe Biden amended by saying: \u201c<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We don\u2019t take them by their word alone but by their actions, and we have leverage to make sure those commitments are met.\u201d<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> The mentioned leverage certainly includes the freezing of Afghan Central Bank funds (about US$10 billion) in addition to US$440 million of emergency reserves with the IMF. (II)<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Afghanistan&#8217;s new foreign minister, Amir Khan Muttaqi, complained about the American stand: &#8220;<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8220;(We) helped the U.S. until evacuation of their last person, but unfortunately the US, instead of thanking us, froze our assets. The U.S. is a great country so it should have great patience, we should help each other.&#8221; (III)<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The UN secretary general, Ant\u00f3nio Guterres, called on all countries to donate humanitarian aid and to have a direct relationship with the Taliban. The EU followed suit. (IV)\u00a0<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The French regime not only committed to donating US$118 million but also met with the Taliban in Doha, where a Taliban political office is based.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">China had already sent US$31 million worth in food and medicine, in addition to a first batch of 3 million doses of vaccine against COVID-19. The Chinese regime is counting on the Taliban to prevent groups for the rights of the Uighurs, a Turkic and Muslim nationality undergoing an ethnic cleansing in Xinjiang Province, from operating from Afghanistan. In addition, China is interested in integrating Afghanistan into the \u201cBelt and Road Initiative\u201d (BRI) and in exploring mineral reserves, particularly of lithium. A Taliban representative stated that <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8220;the Taliban welcomes foreign investment that will benefit the country&#8221;<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. (V)<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Russian regime promotes on September 16, 2021 in Dushanbe, Tajikistan, two important diplomatic meetings:<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The first is from the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (CSO) that unites Russia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, and Tajikistan, India and Pakistan, in addition to Afghanistan itself, which has observer status.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The second is the Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO) which will bring together the presidents of Tajikistan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Belarus, Russia and the Prime Minister of Armenia.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The objective of both meetings is diplomatic recognition, bilateral relations and cooperation with the Taliban regime. They want the Taliban to commit not to host or assist opposition groups from neighboring countries (one of the new ministers, Fazel Mazloom had relations with the oppositionist Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan). In return, the Tajikistan regime would cease its support for ethnic Tajik groups that oppose the Taliban. (VI)<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These meetings were preceded by joint military exercises in Kyrgyzstan the week before. The Russian foreign minister explained that Russia still has the objective of preventing the United States from establishing agreements with the former Soviet republics for the establishment of military bases.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Indian Ambassador Deepak Mittal met with Sher Mohammad Abbas Stanekzai, the head of the Taliban&#8217;s political office in Qatar on 31 August. A strong ally of the former Afghan puppet regime, the Indian regime is very concerned that the Taliban could serve as a fulcrum for groups fighting for Kashmir&#8217;s independence. In addition, the Indian regime and the country&#8217;s companies invested $3 billion during the 20-year occupation. The Taliban signaled positively to the issues raised. Previously, the Taliban had asked the Indian regime not to close its embassy in the country. (VII)<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On September 8, the foreign ministers of Pakistan, Iran, China, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan and Turkmenistan met virtually. The main issue was regional security and the effort to prevent \u201cterrorist\u201d groups from setting up on Afghan soil to intervene in neighboring countries. The issue of refugees was addressed as well. (VIII)<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Finally, Qatar and the UAE are in permanent contact with the Taliban. Qatar Airways has already made several flights to Kabul and works together with the Turks to make the Kabul airport operational. There have already been flights from Pakistan and Tajikistan.<\/span><br \/>\n<strong>Peace with capitalist world order and war against working people<\/strong><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While flirting with the world order, the Taliban, and now its interim government, signals that it will not accept any dissent in the country.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On September 10, UN human rights spokeswoman Ravina Shamdasani denounced that the Taliban&#8217;s response to peaceful protests, mostly by women, had become increasingly violent with the use of gunfire, clubs and whips and that four protesters were killed. Ravina added that protesters were searched house-to-house and journalists were beaten. (IX)<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Subsequently, the interim government banned protests without prior authorization from the regime.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Women have good reasons to protest. The interim government announced that women are not allowed to play sports but will be able to study as long as they are separated from male students, with mandatory veiling and a new curriculum. The same goes for work. In practice, this decision will already prevent most women from working and studying. As for barbaric practices held by Taliban previous rule such as stoning or hanging women accused of adultery, public flogging or the much older practice of <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0bride-price payments given by a groom\u2019s family for the bride\u2019s hand<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, the interim government has yet to take a stand.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another sector that took to the streets were the three thousand residents evicted in Herat on September 14. They were given eviction orders to complete within three days. Most are military and police family members. (X)<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Afghan working class and the peasants have great challenges ahead.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On the one hand the humanitarian crisis with lack of food and medical supplies due to drought and economic collapse, in addition to thousands of refugees in cities without adequate housing conditions. Today a third of the population lives on less than $2 a day, and that figure could explode this month if the $1.1 billion UN humanitarian aid does not arrive or is not distributed.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On the other hand, there are issues relating to women&#8217;s rights and democratic freedoms that are opposed by the interim government.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another strategic issue is land tenure. The Taliban never advocated land reform although it is the only way to end rural poverty and provide food for the cities.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The appointment of Taliban leaders to the interim government who have associated themselves with the production, processing and export of opium and heroin points to maintaining the country as the world&#8217;s main producer. In its first government, the Taliban banned the planting of poppies, which should not be repeated at this time.<\/span><br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Notes\u00a0<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(I) <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/middle-east-pakistan-afghanistan-arrests-islamabad-d50b1b490d27d32eb20cc11b77c12c87\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/middle-east-pakistan-afghanistan-arrests-islamabad-d50b1b490d27d32eb20cc11b77c12c87<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(II) <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.whitehouse.gov\/briefing-room\/speeches-remarks\/2021\/08\/31\/remarks-by-president-biden-on-the-end-of-the-war-in-afghanistan\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/www.whitehouse.gov\/briefing-room\/speeches-remarks\/2021\/08\/31\/remarks-by-president-biden-on-the-end-of-the-war-in-afghanistan\/<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(III) <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/world\/asia-pacific\/afghan-acting-foreign-minister-urges-international-donors-restart-aid-2021-09-14\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/world\/asia-pacific\/afghan-acting-foreign-minister-urges-international-donors-restart-aid-2021-09-14\/<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(IV) <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/world\/europe\/eu-says-it-has-no-option-talk-taliban-2021-09-14\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/world\/europe\/eu-says-it-has-no-option-talk-taliban-2021-09-14\/<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(V) <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/world\/middle-east\/west-ponders-aid-afghanistan-china-pakistan-quick-provide-relief-2021-09-12\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/world\/middle-east\/west-ponders-aid-afghanistan-china-pakistan-quick-provide-relief-2021-09-12\/<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(VI)<\/span><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.aa.com.tr\/en\/analysis\/analysis-tajikistan-to-host-summits-of-regional-powers-to-discuss-afghanistan\/2363309\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/www.aa.com.tr\/en\/analysis\/analysis-tajikistan-to-host-summits-of-regional-powers-to-discuss-afghanistan\/2363309<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(VII) <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/world\/india\/india-holds-talks-with-senior-taliban-official-first-since-fall-kabul-2021-08-31\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/world\/india\/india-holds-talks-with-senior-taliban-official-first-since-fall-kabul-2021-08-31\/<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(VIII) <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/en.irna.ir\/news\/84464663\/Consensus-of-neighbors-inevitable-to-help-restore-peace-in-Afghanistan\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/en.irna.ir\/news\/84464663\/Consensus-of-neighbors-inevitable-to-help-restore-peace-in-Afghanistan<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(IX) <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/business\/media-telecom\/taliban-response-afghan-protests-increasingly-violent-un-says-2021-09-10\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/business\/media-telecom\/taliban-response-afghan-protests-increasingly-violent-un-says-2021-09-10\/<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(X)\u00a0<\/span><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/world\/asia-pacific\/thousands-protest-against-taliban-kandahar-over-evictions-2021-09-14\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/world\/asia-pacific\/thousands-protest-against-taliban-kandahar-over-evictions-2021-09-14\/<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On September 7, the Taliban announced an interim government for Afghanistan.
