“The US delegation focused on security and terrorism concerns and safe passage for US citizens, other foreign nationals and our Afghan partners, as well as on human rights, including the meaningful participation of women and girls in all aspects of Afghan society,” Price said.

Price marked the discussion as candid and professional adding that the United States will continue providing humanitarian aids and delivering it directly to the in-need people. The US delegation has also said the Islamic Emirate will be judged based on its deeds, not word.
