UN Travel ban exemptions for Taliban leaders expired

The UN travel ban exemption for officials of the Islamic Emirate has not been extended by the UN Security Council in more than three months.

Meanwhile, some experts on international relations believe that the Islamic Emirate's refusal to accede to the demands of the international community is what prevented the extension of the travel exemption for its officials.(20221125)
