It is obvious that it is impossible to solve problems or even discuss an Afghan settlement without Kabul,
Moscow will continue its course on developing political, trade and economic ties with Kabul,
We also appreciate the positive remarks by the high-ranking officials of the Russian Federation in this regard and hope to see more effective steps soon,
The Taliban has limitations on what it can do,
The Taliban certainly are our allies in the fight against terrorism,
Western intelligence officials have told me that cooperation with the Taliban against IS-K is ongoing, including the sharing of targeting information that allows the Taliban to take lethal action against terrorists,
But the situation is far from straightforward,
Afghanistan cannot strengthen its economy unless women are able to participate in all aspects of society without limitations,
We have been very clear that we judge the Taliban by what they do, not by what they say,
