China warns Taliban against Afghanistan again becoming 'haven' for terror groups

China's deputy permanent representative to the UN, Geng Shuang, has warned the Taliban against Afghanistan once again becoming a "haven" for terrorists.

Hours after expressing hope that the Taliban will form an "open and inclusive" Islamic government and ensure a smooth transition in Afghanistan, China has warned the Afghan militant group against the country once again becoming a "haven" for terrorists. The remarks by China's deputy permanent representative to the UN, Geng Shuang, came during an emergency meeting of the Security Council on the situation in Afghanistan on Monday after the sudden and rapid takeover of the Afghanistan government by the Taliban insurgents.
