Qatar and the EU frustrated by human rights violations in Afghanistan

Senior diplomats from Qatar and the European Union called the human rights violations in Afghanistan "disappointing," while Doha suggested that the Taliban seek Qatar to lead the Islamic system.

The Taliban hanged four suspected kidnappers with cranes in Herat last week, while girls from the main parties were unable to resume their studies for the new school year, AFP reported.

"I am very disappointed to see some of the recent developments in Afghanistan," Qatari Foreign Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman al-Thani told a news conference in Doha.

Qatar is seen as a key player in Afghanistan following the withdrawal of US troops last month, assisting in the evacuation of thousands of foreigners and Afghans, engaging the new Taliban leadership and supporting operations at the airport in Kabul.

Sheikh Mohammad Abdul Rehman said: “We have to compromise with them and they are urged not to take such measures and we have tried to tell the Taliban how Muslim countries follow their laws. And how can they address women's issues?

"An example is the State of Qatar, a Muslim country. Our system is an Islamic system (however) we have more women in government and more men in higher education," he said.

EU foreign policy chief Joseph Borrell echoed the Qatari diplomat's comments at the Doha meetings, saying that "some of the recent events in Afghanistan are very disappointing."

"We hope that the Afghans can take over the government," he said.

The kidnappings have been carried out publicly since the Taliban came to power last month, the biggest public punishment.

This is seen as a sign that the Islamist Taliban will take horrible actions, as they did under their previous rule from 1996 to 2001.

It has been almost two weeks since high school girls were allowed to attend educational institutions, and in recent days women have separately protested across Afghanistan.

Sheikh Mohammad Abdul Rehman called on the Taliban to "preserve and preserve the gains made over the years," but also warned the international community not to isolate Afghanistan.

"It is very important that Muslim countries set a good example to the Taliban so that there is no abuse of women or abuse of Sharia law," he said.
