Taliban’s spokesman, Zabiullah Mujahid denied the report from the United Nations Security Council (UNSC), stating that counter-terrorism is the main principle of the Afghan Government, reports Tolo News on February 2. He further said, “From the address of the United Nations, a regular slander program has been created against the Islamic Emirate (Taliban), and they always spread propaganda against them."“The stance of the UN is misused. We call on the countries who are members of the UNSC but have good relations with Afghanistan to not allow the reputation of the organization to be harmed,” he added.
