Afghanistan Justice and Freedom Party led by former vice-president of Afghanistan, Sarwar Danesh, announced its formation. In a statement, the party announced that they believe in following the goals of "resistance against any kind of aggression and tyranny".
The party stressed the developments of the past five decades paved the ground for “interventions and competition by different countries and their proxy wars" in Afghanistan that resulted in the emergence of “international terrorist and extremist groups".
The Danesh-led party called the Taliban reign in Afghanistan illegitimate and monopolistic.
Meanwhile, last year, Danesh had published the draft constitution of the Islamic Federal Republic of Afghanistan on his Facebook page, however, there is no mention of a federal system in the statement published by the party.
Afghanistan Justice and Freedom Party is the third political group that has been formed outside the country after Taliban’s return to power.
Last month, Hanif Atmar, the former foreign minister of Afghanistan, announced the formation of the Afghanistan National Movement for Peace and Justice.
Earlier this year, several influential political leaders of Afghanistan announced the formation of the Supreme Council of National Resistance for the Salvation of Afghanistan and said it would stand up against the Taliban.
