The Taliban are asking the UN to give him the Afghan position in the organization

To this day, the UN is represented by a staff of diplomats appointed by the government of Afghanistan, which was overthrown more than two years ago.

Mujahid said that not giving the place to the Taliban would be an insult to the people of Afghanistan.

“This organization has special goals. And we go the other way, that is, independence, freedom and the Islamic system. Naturally, their (UN) path is different from ours, but if it is not handed over to the Afghan people and the government formed by the Taliban (a representative position at the UN), it will be a great injustice to the people of Afghanistan, “Mujahideen said.

Until 16 December 2021, the Afghan mission to the United Nations was headed by Ghulam is'hoqzoy, who had been appointed to the position at the time when the former government controlled power in Kabul. He later resigned as the government fell into the hands of the Taliban movement. The new head of the Afghan mission was Nasir Ahmad Faik.

The UN is unable to side with the Taliban and change the composition of the Afghan mission, as the Taliban government is not recognized by any state in the world.

At the same time, in a number of countries, local diplomatic missions are led by representatives of the Taliban, who are not officially recognized. These countries include Iran, Russia, China, Pakistan and Turkmenistan.

In addition, the UN is practically cooperating with the Taliban government to carry out its humanitarian missions in Afghanistan.
