Afghan Girls Must Live Freely & Get Education, Says White House
Karine Jean-Pierre, the White House spokesperson, has again emphasised on the importance of girls' right to education in Afghanistan.
During a press conference on Monday, Pierre said that the US President has always been very clear about the importance of girls living freely and being able to go to school and seek education.
Pierre added that the US has been very clear in laying out their concerns, such as girls’ education, with the Taliban.
However, Pierre stressed that Washington remains laser-focused on trying to support and assist the Afghan people without bolstering the Taliban.
Referring to the support of US President Joe Biden's administration towards the education of Afghan girls, she said that the US government consistently assesses Washington’s relationship and approach with the Taliban.
For more than 700 days, the Taliban have deprived Afghan girls and women of the right to education in Afghanistan.
