The United Nations Secretary-General, expressing concern about the situation of women in Afghanistan, has urged, together with various countries and organizations, the Afghan caretaker government to immediately lift the restrictions imposed on women.

António Guterres, the UN Secretary-General, said: "What is happening in Afghanistan can be compared with some of the most egregious systems of oppression in recent history. I join all countries & organizations demanding that the de facto authorities remove all discriminatory restrictions against women & girls immediately.”

Salim Paigir, a political analyst, said: "We must provide education and employment opportunities for women; without that, the pressure on the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan will only increase, and the Afghan people will be the first to suffer."

Recently, four countries criticized the human rights violations in Afghanistan and warned that they would file a complaint against the Afghan caretaker government at the International Criminal Court in The Hague. More than 26 other countries supported the initiative by Australia, Canada, the Netherlands, and Germany.

In response to these criticisms, the Islamic Emirate rejected the statements of these countries, stating that the rights of citizens, especially women and girls, are upheld in Afghanistan.

Sayed Akbar Sial Wardak, a political expert, said: "It is better for all issues to be resolved through negotiations, and a mechanism should be established to help us integrate with the international community."

Bilal Omar, an international relations expert, said: "It is necessary for the Islamic Emirate government to take serious measures in this regard because the fate of the entire nation depends on these critical issues."

Previously, officials from several countries, including Australia, Pakistan, Germany, Indonesia, Liechtenstein, and others, had expressed concern about the situation of women in Afghanistan.
