Germany to wait for Taliban’s decision on Kabul airport charter flights

BERLIN, 01 September 2021, (TON): Foreign Minister Heiko Maas said Germany will wait for the Taliban to install a new government to see if the Islamists will honour their pledge to allow civilians to leave Afghanistan on flights from Kabul airport.
Maas said during a news conference in Islamabad with his Pakistani counterpart Shah Mehmood Qureshi"The Taliban have promised, but in the coming days and weeks we will find out whether we can count on that.”
“The Taliban want to install a new government, and this will give us an indication whether our request that it be inclusive is met,” he added.
