Taliban in their Transformed Form

This time Taliban have taken the ground with their different agendas. They have taken control over Kabul and many other cities and are handling things with peace and harmony. This shows their transformed form.

It is not the first time of Taliban rule over Afghanistan. They had ruled over it from 1996 to 2001. And after the incident of 9/11, the Americans had taken the power from the Taliban and had tried to set up their rule. Though Afghanistan is a democratic country but lacks the practicality of democracy. Americans were aimed to wind up the story of the Taliban from Afghanistan and for they took two full decades but turned back defeated. In the past Taliban were also not justifying their homeland but what the Americans had done is indescribable. They had killed many civilians without any reason. The well-equipped and well-trained Americans are failed to fight with the Taliban and returned with open hands.

Moreover, what the Afghan government and armed forces have done is unimaginative. How a country leader can leave his duties and flee to some foreign land? And how can the guards of a nation surrender without any fight? All these incidents are much horrifying than the 9/11 one.

But by the grace of Allah, the Taliban are back in their transformed form. They have presented their policies in front of the media. The major of their transformation can be judged from their positive responses and usage of media. They have openly shared that they are ready for reconciliations, women would have their freedom under Shari laws and there would not be any kind of mishappening inside the country. Taliban are well prepared for an established government setup.

The good thing is till now there is peace inside the country. Many of the people have migrated and some other wants to. But some of them who have migrated now want to go back because of the peace in their country. The refugees who came to Pakistan and now willing to go back to Afghanistan.  

One of the Afghan refugee Waliur Rahman told AFP that: “I am returning to Ghazni, now peace has been established and we are happy that we are returning to our home. It’s much better to go back and settle there,”

Another refugee told AFP he is confident that the end of the conflict would bring a brighter future. He also said that: “We migrated here to Pakistan because of the ongoing war in Afghanistan, now peace has been established.”

Taliban are assuring that there would be domestic peace, regional progress, and international harmony. As they have already met with China to have the bilateral relations and developments in collaboration.

This time Pakistan is playing the most constructive role in maintaining Afghanistan as a peaceful state. Pakistan always forwards the notion of Afghan-led and Afghan-owned.

We are hopeful that the Taliban will sustain peace in Afghanistan. Peace in Afghanistan means peace in the Wolrd. because Afghanistan is prestigious in terms of its geostrategic location and is the hub of natural resources.

Pakistan expresses disappointment over UNSC’s failure to call for a ceasefire in Gaza

ISLAMABAD, Dec 09 (APP): The Foreign Office on Saturday said that Pakistan was deeply disappointed that the UN Security Council once again failed to call for a ceasefire in Gaza, even in the face of a human tragedy of epic proportions taking place there.

Despite the invocation of Article-99 of the UN Charter by the Secretary-General and his warnings of humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza, the Council has failed to perform its primary responsibility to maintain international peace and security. The collective punishment endured by the besieged people of Gaza is unprecedented and unacceptable,” Foreign Office Spokesperson said in a press statement.

Pakistan reiterated its call for an immediate and unconditional ceasefire to avert a humanitarian catastrophe. Israel must end its barbaric attacks and inhumane siege against Gaza.

“We urge the UN Security Council to act now, end this inhuman war and protect the people of Gaza from an impending genocide,” it was stressed.

The spokesperson said that continuation of Israel’s campaign in occupied Palestine would prolong human suffering, with massive civilian casualties and forced displacement of millions of people.

It could also trigger a wider and more dangerous conflict. A heavy responsibility rested on all who have contributed to the prolongation of uninterrupted bombing of the people of Gaza, it was added.

Pakistan asks UN to investigate Israel’s atrocity crimes in Palestine

Acting Permanent Representative of Pakistan to the United Nations Ambassador Usman Iqbal Jadoon has asked the General Assembly and UN Security Council to consider the establishment of a special tribunal and accountability mechanism to investigate Israel’s atrocity crimes in Palestine.

Taking part in the UN General Assembly Debate on the “Question of Palestine”, Ambassador Usman Iqbal Jadoon asked that deployment of an international protection force or mechanism to protect Palestinian civilians, especially women and children in Gaza and West Bank and play its role in the restoration of the peace process.

The Ambassador regretted that the General Assembly’s call was not heeded by Israel, which continued its indiscriminate and criminal attacks against the Palestinian people. Israel also ignored the call from the Security Council to comply with its obligations under international law, including international humanitarian law, notably with regard to the protection of civilians, especially children; and to refrain from depriving the civilian population in the Gaza Strip of basic services and humanitarian assistance indispensable to their survival.

He strongly condemned the indiscriminate use of force by Israel. He said Israel’s attacks on civilians, civilian objects and infrastructure, blockading of water, food and fuel, as well as the forced displacement of people within the occupied territory, are flagrant violations of international humanitarian law and amount to war crimes and crimes against humanity, and may amount to the crime of genocide. 

The Ambassador appreciated the efforts undertaken by Qatar and Egypt to save precious lives. Pakistan’s position, however, remains in favour of a complete and immediate cessation of hostilities. He said the Israeli killing machine operating with complete impunity needs to be stopped and Israel must be held accountable for its defiance and criminal actions.
