The National Resistance Council for the Salvation of Afghanistan (NRCA), in a statement on the occasion of Eid al-Adha, criticised the Taliban's actions, declaring, "There is only one way left, and that is resistance against the Taliban."
The council called on political and military groups opposing the Taliban to unite in the fight against them. On Saturday, June 15, the NRCA stated that Afghanistan under Taliban rule lacks a legitimate and legal system.
According to the council, this year’s Eid al-Adha is celebrated while the Taliban have deprived women and girls of all basic human rights, especially the rights to education and work. The statement added that, in addition to depriving women and girls of their basic human rights, the Taliban have continued "killings, torture, and usurpation of people's property."
The council urged regional and global powers, which have so far engaged in one-sided interactions with the Taliban, to reconsider their approach. The NRCA warned countries currently signing various economic agreements with the Taliban that these contracts are illegal and illegitimate, and that the Taliban use the benefits from these contracts to promote violence and foster terrorism.
The council emphasised that stability and peace in Afghanistan can only be achieved through a government founded on public will and free, fair elections. The council also called on Afghanistan's neighbouring countries to refrain from forcibly expelling Afghan migrants and to wait until conditions for a peaceful and humane existence are established in Afghanistan.
