After ten months, India’s formal return to North Asia was the reopening of the Indian Embassy in Kabul. After the Taliban took over Afghanistan, India withdrew its official in August last year.
From the side of India, JP Singh takes charge of Afghanistan. JP Singh meets with two Taliban leaders. One is the acting foreign minister Amir khan Muttaqi and his deputy, Mohammed Abbas Stankizai, during JP Singh’s trip to Kabul. He gifted Mr Muttaqi a plaque with a quote from the holy Quran.
The external affairs ministry said that the technical team reached Kabul on Thursday and was deployed at the embassy to “closely monitor and coordinate the efforts of various collaborators for the effective delivery of humanitarian help and in continuation of our appointment with the Afghan people”.
Taliban Wants India’s Friendship
The Indian diplomats found all the property of the embassy in Afghanistan-all diplomats residents the ambassador’s house in good shape.
Taliban wanted to reengage with India because all the properties of Indian Diplomats had been adequately guarded these last ten months. Still, Taliban fighters had devasted other countries’ properties, including the USA and Norway.
Is It Good For New Delhi To Re-establish The Relation With Kabul?
JP Singh, joint secretary of India, said, “our long-standing links with Afghan society and our development relationship, including humanitarian assistance for the people of Afghanistan, will continue to guide our approach in the future now. We will see after some time whether this decision of the government is good or bad?
India abstains from a UNSC resolution petition that the Taliban reopen girls’ schools and Indian Diplomats of Taliban Mullah Yaqoob said that the Taliban has no issue with Afghan soldiers being trained in India
A Distress Move For Democracy
Indian government’s decision to reconstruct its mission in Afghanistan will disturb several people, especially those who love democracy. Many believed that India would never support any terror group like the Taliban this time. Not India but 14 other Nations have opened their embassies in Afghanistan in the last ten months. These include Pakistan, Russia, China, Iran, Turkey, Central Asian Republics, the EU and Germany.
It is a necessary step for India because after reopening the embassy, now it gives eyes and ears, allowing Indian diplomats to meet all kinds of Afghans and foreign diplomats. Even the Taliban has sent its diplomats to four countries-China, Russia, Pakistan and Turkmenistan.
Taliban Accepts His National Interest Against Pakistan
Taliban adopted an Independent foreign policy, and the Taliban said it would no longer allow the fencing of the Durand line, no matter what Pakistan said. Now Taliban has built up its position on the ceasefire negotiations between the Pakistan military head by Faiz Hamid, former head of ISI.
No Need For Third Contact Between New Delhi And Kabul
During Singh’s visits, Taliban leaders self-assured him that they would not allow Afghan soil to be used by Pakistan-based terror groups to attack India. Dr Abdullah Abdullah, the Afghan leader, met the US special envoy to Afghanistan, Thomas West, in the US embassy office in India. There are no third-party contacts via the US, Russia, or Qatar. Better to speak directly with your conversational current.
