Referring to the activities of Afghanistan’s representation at the United Nations, Andisha mentioned important achievements in exposing the Taliban’s systematic crimes.
According to him, the preparation and presentation of a comprehensive report on the widespread deprivation and discrimination against Afghan women and girls has brought their oppressed voices to the ears of international institutions.
Most importantly, Andisha considered the issuance of arrest warrants for Haibatullah Akhundzada, the Taliban leader, and Abdul Hakeem Haqqani, the group’s chief judge, a major step towards global justice.
He described the ICC’s move as a “historic achievement” that could mark the beginning of the end of Taliban criminals’ impunity.
These statements come as the Taliban have been recognized by Russia for the first time in nearly four years;
A move that has been met with strong domestic and foreign reactions. Now, it seems that international pressure is increasing and the “day of reckoning” has arrived for the Taliban leaders.
