The United States and 11 of its allies condemned in a joint statement this Wednesday the Taliban’s veto on women’s access to universities in Afghanistan and demanded an “immediate end” to the crackdown.
The text is signed by the Foreign Ministers of the United States, Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the Netherlands, Norway, Spain and the United Kingdom, and European Union (EUROPEAN UNION).
Signatories ‘strongly’ condemn new policy Taliban denied entry last Tuesday women to universities, a new step after the veto of girls’ access to secondary education.
“We support the demands of the Afghans for respect for human rights in accordance with the obligations Afghanistan under international law. With this decision, the Taliban further isolate themselves from the Afghan population and the international community,” they warned.
Women’s rights situation
They criticized the fact that over the past 16 months the regime Talibanseized power in Afghanistan after the withdrawal of US troops, issued at least 16 decrees restricting the rights women.
As an example, they cited the ban on work and the use of public places, as well as the obligation to cover oneself from head to toe.
“This policy clearly shows the Taliban’s disregard for the human rights and fundamental freedoms of the people of Afghanistan,” they said.
Western allies stressed that Afghanistan he “urgently” needs women’s participation in the economy and society in order for the country to be “viable and peaceful.”
“We demand Taliban immediately abandon the new repressive measures against university education for women,” they sentenced.
Despite promises that they have changed, the Taliban repeated the behavior of their previous regime between 1996 and 2001 when, based on a harsh interpretation of Islam and its strict social code known as Pashtunwali, they banned women from schools and imprisoned women at home. . .
