UK envoy urges IEA to engage with world

KABUL (Pajhwok): The United Kingdom’s special envoy has said the G7 convened a meeting of special representatives on Afghanistan this week.

In a post on X, Richard Lindsay, the UK’s special envoy, wrote: “This week we convened G7+ Special Representatives for Afghanistan and reaffirmed our commitment to supporting the people of Afghanistan.”

He urged the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan (IEA) to engage constructively and in good faith with the international community.

This comes as the IEA has repeatedly stated that it is ready for positive engagement with the world on the basis of mutual respect.
