  IN February 2020, the Taliban (also known as the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan) reached a peace accord with the US and began talks with the Afghan government about power-sharing. In Doha, Qatar, the agreement was signed. The Agreement The agreement is divided into four parts. First, guarantees and enforcement measures that will prevent any group or individual from using Afghan land against the security of the US and its allies. Second, guarantees, enforcement mechanisms, and a schedule for the withdrawal of all foreign forces from Afghanistan must be announced. Third, on March 10, 2020, the Taliban will begin intra-Afghan negotiations with Afghan sides following the announcement of a complete withdrawal of foreign forces and a promise that Afghan soil will not be utilized against the security of the United States and its allies. Finally, the intra-Afghan dialogue and negotiations will include a lasting and complete ceasefire as a matter. Intra-Afghan talks will focus on the timing a

  THE Taliban had gained control of virtually all of Afghanistan’s provincial capitals, including Jalalabad, Lashkar Gah, Firuz Koh, Kandahar, and Herat. They also took Kabul, Afghanistan’s capital, without seeing any resistance from the Afghan army. Last Friday, UN Secretary-General António Guterres stated that Afghanistan’s humanitarian needs were expanding by the hour and that the country was basically spinning out of control. In the interest of Afghanistan and its people, he further encouraged Taliban militants to immediately end their onslaught against government forces and return to the negotiating table in good faith. They will gain the upper hand and dictate the direction of negotiations with different parties both inside and outside by dominating the entire country with no hard fight from the Afghan army. According to several sources, the Taliban’s brutality has resurfaced even more forcefully. The safety and protection of women and children is under risk, particularly young g

  AFGHANISTAN is currently under siege. In reaction to the Taliban’s growing offensive, which has seen the armed insurgents gain substantial territory, the Afghan government imposed a night-time curfew across the country a few days ago. As US and North-Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) soldiers leave Afghanistan, the Taliban has gained territory and crucial border crossings since May. The US-NATO evacuation is nearly complete, and it is likely to be finished in the next weeks. Meanwhile, the Taliban claims to have taken control of more than 85% of Afghanistan. The questions To begin with, how did the Taliban manage to conquer over 85 percent of Afghanistan’s territory in such a short time? Second, is the Taliban regarded as a terrorist group or not? Which countries have acknowledged the Taliban as representing the Afghan people as a whole, with the exception of Qatar, which permitted the Taliban to create an office? Between 1996 and 2001, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab E

OUR country has been in disarray since February. Ordinary people like us, who don’t understand the role of “learned” people like our politicians in planning the COVID-19 pandemic’s covert “coup d’etat“, see it as an odd event to accept. We therefore accepted their justifications for taking over the Government without having to go through the ballot papers, as the Yang di-Pertuan Agong had done. Unlike Tunisia and Thailand, we did not take to the streets to protest. We had a lot of patience. Despite the many lockdowns and the unnecessary Sabah election held because of a few dishonest persons, the number of COVID-19 cases has increased, we continue to pay attention to the Government’s pleas. Even while several ministers and prominent people broke the lockdown restrictions, they were only mildly reprimanded, whereas ordinary people, such as the burger seller in Kelantan, were severely punished. We retain the appropriate level of formality. We, Malaysians, adore our nation and alwa

  WITH the Aghan Government on the brink following the complete withdrawal of US troops later this month, an academic urged the United Nations (UN) and the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) to intervene before a civil war erupts in the nation. “The current Afghan administration, led by President Ashraf Ghani, is having trouble persuading his troops to fight the Taliban aggressively, despite the latter claiming control of more than 85% of the country’s territory. “People who cooperated with the US and its allies, including their family members, are at risk of being killed by the Taliban as the troops leave Afghanistan later this month. “The US is obligated to stabilise Afghanistan at all costs, because they cannot afford to repeat the mistakes made in Iraq. “The Islamic State was formed as a result of the US handing over power to the Iraqi people before stabilising the country, resulting in the world having to deal with a strong radical movement until today,” HELP Univer
