Taliban urge UN to allow them to speak
The UN credentials committee consisting of nine countries will decide the fate of the seat dispute.
The Secretary-General of United Nations (UN) Antonio Guterres received a communication with the letterhead “Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan, Ministry of Foreign Affairs,” signed by “Ameer Khan Muttaqi” as “Minister of Foreign Affairs,” requesting to participate in the UN session of world leaders.
The letter said that they no longer recognize Ghulam Isaczai as their representative and nominated Suhail Shaheen as their representative to the UN.
The UN credentials committee consisting of nine countries will decide the fate of the seat dispute.
However, the Taliban participation in the current session is difficult.
Afghanistan is scheduled to give the last speech on the final day of the high-level meeting on Sept 27.
