PARIS, 06 December 2021, (TON): The French president said “several European countries are mulling over opening a joint diplomatic mission in Afghanistan.”
However, Emmanuel Macron explained the move would not mean recognition of the Taliban’s Islamic Emirate.
Speaking to journalists in Doha, he said “we are thinking of an organisation between several European countries a common location for several Europeans, which would allow our ambassadors to be present.”
Macron was quoted as saying by media “this is a different demarche than a political recognition or political dialogue with the Taliban, we will have a representation as soon as we can open.”
After talks with the Taliban last week, the European Union hinted at opening a diplomatic mission in Kabul soon.
