The Hazara leader in Afghanistan threatens to fight the Taliban movement if it does not fulfill its promises to form an inclusive government to all ethnicities of the country.
Sputnik reported the death of two Taliban fighters and one civilian in Nangarhar, in eastern Afghanistan.
The former Afghan vice president and leader of the Hazara minority, Muhammad Karim Khalili, declared that the group will resort to armed confrontation with the Taliban movement if the latter does not fulfill its promises.
Khalili said that the government formed by the Taliban is not inclusive, adding that the continuation of this process is unacceptable to other forces and ethnic groups.
The Hazara leader announced that the situation is due to become intolerable for both the Tajiks and the Uzbeks, who will return to the battlefield together with the Hazaras.
Taliban asks to speak at the UN
Today, Wednesday, the United Nations announced that the Taliban movement had asked the international organization to allow its nominated representative to address the UN General Assembly in New York this week.
The ambassador of the former Afghan government also asked to schedule a speech for Afghanistan at the UN General Assembly. The United Nations has not yet decided on who will represent Afghanistan in these meetings.
Yesterday, the spokesman for the Taliban movement, Zabihullah Mujahid, announced the formation of the first government in the country since the movement took power on August 15. The new government will include diverse ethnicities as part of the commitments made earlier by the movement.
