Tariq Ali Bakheet, the deputy and special envoy of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) for Afghanistan, in a meeting with Mawlawi Abdul Kabir, the political deputy of the PM, stated that the organization is working to facilitate assistance and interaction between the Islamic Emirate and the world.

Tariq Ali Bakheet was quoted in a statement by the Arg saying that Afghanistan's neighboring countries should directly express their concerns closely with the Islamic Emirate.

According to the statement, Mawlawi Abdul Kabir in the meeting stated that the Islamic Emirate is eager to develop cooperation, interaction, and stability in the region.

“He said that the efforts of the Islamic Emirate concerning the initiation of infrastructure projects and the strengthening of Afghanistan’s economy are notable, and emphasized that the neighboring countries of Afghanistan, which have some concerns, should discuss them closely with the Islamic Emirate,” the statement reads.

Hamdullah Fetrat, the deputy spokesperson of the Islamic Emirate, about this meeting added: “Tariq Ali Bakheet stated that the Organization of Islamic Cooperation does not have any hidden agenda for Afghanistan but is working to attract aid and facilitate interaction between the Islamic Emirate and the world.”

Mawlawi Abdul Kabir also added in the meeting that, according to the decree of the leader of the Islamic Emirate, Bad Dadan (“giving away a daughter,” which typically involves settling a dispute between families or tribes by marrying off a girl from one family to a man from the other), depriving women of inheritance, and their being forced into marriage, are prohibited in the country.

The deputy and special envoy of the OIC for Afghanistan also met with the head of UNAMA, Roza Otunbayeva, and discussed the plans and projects of OIC and UNAMA to support the people of Afghanistan in various fields.

Aziz Maarij, a political analyst, said: “They can be good lobbyists for securing Afghanistan's relations with the world and convince the world to help Afghanistan emerge from isolation.”

The Arg also mentioned that the Organization of Islamic Cooperation has created a fund to collect aid for the people of Afghanistan.

The delegation of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation, represented by Tariq Ali Bakheet, also met with the acting minister of public health, announcing the readiness and cooperation of this organization in the health sector with Afghanistan to support health shelters, nutrition, and other areas.
