The official representative of US State Department Ned Price rated the prospects for the possible recognition of Taliban (a terrorist organization, prohibited in the Russian Federation) legitimate power in Afghanistan. According to him, the American side discusses this issue with its partners, RIA Novosti reports.
Price noted that the governments of individual Western countries do not solve the issue of recognizing the Taliban and future contacts with them alone. “We are in constant and regular contact on this topic with our partners and allies around the world,” he added.
previously became known that the Taliban appealed to the United States asking for their diplomats in Afghanistan after the withdrawal of American troops from the country. According to Prica, the United States has not yet taken a final decision on this issue.
