Zabihullah Mujahid, head of the Taliban delegation, urged participants of the third Doha meeting to release Afghanistan's Central Bank reserves and lift financial and banking sanctions on the group.
Mujahid emphasised that for the Doha process to be "meaningful," an alternative to poppy cultivation should be financially supported.
He also called for the formation of a working group among participants of the Doha meeting to achieve these objectives.
On Monday, the Taliban released an audio file of Mujahid's speech, the head of their delegation at the third Doha meeting.
In his address, Mujahid detailed the group's proposals and conditions for making the Doha process "meaningful”. He stressed that accepting these proposals would help "build confidence" between the Taliban and other participants in Doha.
Meanwhile, Zakir Jalali, an official from the Taliban's Foreign Ministry, stated on the X social media platform that progress on these demands would impact the group's ongoing cooperation with the Doha process.
