ROME PROMISED TO REOPEN ITALIAN EMBASSY IN KABUL -TALIBAN

Fri 03 September 2021:

According to Mohammad Naeem, a spokesman for the Taliban political office, Italy has promised to reopen its embassy in Kabul after its staff was evacuated following the Taliban takeover.

Italian Foreign Minister Luigi Di Maio said on Thursday that it was preliminary to speak about reopening the embassy in the Afghan capital, citing poor security conditions in the city.

“Today, the political office of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan [the self-name of the Taliban political system] .

.. held a meeting with the representative of Italian Prime Minister [Mario Draghi] … Italy promised to reopen its embassy in Afghanistan,” Naeem tweeted.

Following the Taliban’s takeover of power in mid-August, Italy, like many other countries, initiated an effort to remove its diplomatic employees, citizens, and partners from Kabul.

Some countries, including Japan and the Netherlands, have moved their embassies to Doha, Qatar’s capital, which also serves as the movement’s political headquarters.
