Well, negotiations with the Taliban and trying to engage with them in political power is the empowerment of the Taliban. It's the empowerment of extremism. It's the empowerment of religious dictatorship. And it's completely obvious.
We need to “de-power”the Taliban. Otherwise, the first day, it will be harmful to us, to women in the country, but the next day it will be harmful to the peace and security of the world. So today it will be harmful to us, but tomorrow it will be harmful to the peace and security of your countries.
The empowerment of the Taliban and any extremist power in Afghanistan, as a centre of extremism, and in Pakistan, as a centre of extremism in the world, is very much disadvantaging the peace and security of the world. This needs to be de-powered. It needs to be suppressed. And it needs to be decreased and eliminated.
So women's empowerment in politics in these countries like Afghanistan and in Afghanistan is the key. Yes: empower women, put them into politics, and give them the political power. They know how to deal with their enemies.
