100 days of Taliban: 257 Afghan media outlets shut, Islamic Emirate still seeking international recognition

Currently, eleven countries, including Iran, Pakistan, China, Russia, Turkey, Qatar, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Italy and the United Arab Emirates, have reportedly opened their embassies in Afghanistan.

Kabul: The Islamic Emirate in Afghanistan marked 100 days in power on Tuesday, but the Taliban is yet to achieve international recognition for the new government. 

According to Tolo News, the Taliban regime is yet to get international recognition despite repeated diplomatic efforts led by Amir Khan Muttaqi to achieve international recognition for Afghanistan`s new government, which is led by Mawlawi Hebatullah Akhundzada, the Islamic Emirate supreme leader. 

Islamic Emirate officials reportedly flew to various regional countries--and further--to seek engagement and to build relations with foreign governments. In return, representatives of at least six countries visited Afghanistan and held talks with officials.
