Taliban spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid announced Tuesday that the war in Afghanistan is now over, revealing that the Taliban has connections in most countries, hoping that they make investments in the country.

In a Kabul press conference, Mujahid added that Afghanistan is going through a sensitive period. He congratulated the Afghan people for "resisting and expelling the occupation."

Mujahid asserted that "We do not have any enmity with anyone," explaining that "we entered Kabul for there to be a peaceful transition of power."

The spokesman stated that the Taliban is present all over the country. He said, "We are responsible for the safety and security of citizens and diplomats." He also stressed that the Taliban wants no internal or foreign enemies.

The spokesman touched on women's rights under the Taliban's rule, saying, "Women will be active in our society but within the framework of Islam. Women are a key part of our society."

"The Taliban will not accept any journalist or media outlets publishing any material that opposes Islam or Muslims," he continued.

Mujahid reassured the Afghan people, and announced that they have "pardoned all those who have worked against us in the past."

He expressed the Taliban's lack of interest in carrying out any attacks against the US forces in the country; however, he noted the necessity of the said forces leaving Afghanistan by the date the United States set, which is September 11.

Taliban officials announced Monday that there are no reports of conflicts anywhere in the country. That came after the Taliban captured Kabul and the US-backed government collapsed in the wake of the movement ordering its forces to enter Kabul.
