Guwahati News Desk: The United Arab Emirates (UAE) reopened its embassy in Afghanistan’s capital Kabul on Friday.
The information about the reopening was released by Taliban’s spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid via a Twitter post on Saturday.
Mujahid tweeted, “The United Arab Emirates reopened its embassy in the capital Kabul with its flag hoisted. A positive step towards more positive steps. The UAE and Afghanistan already have good relations, which need to be strengthened.”
In addition, the UAE flag was raised at the entrance of the embassy.
Moreover, most of the foreign embassies had also closed their diplomatic mission in Afghanistan, due to the escalating violence in the country, prior to the Taliban’s takeover of the country in August.
In addition, after the Taliban seized power in Kabul on August 15, the UAE hosted scores of Afghan families fleeing the country, after they were evacuated.
Furthermore, the UAE had sent several planes carrying medical and food aid to Kabul since the outbreak of the humanitarian crisis as a result of the war between the Taliban and US-backed government forces.
