Taliban Not Invited To SCO Summit In Pakistan

Oct 12, 2024, 13:43 GMT+1

The Taliban has not been invited to the upcoming meeting of the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO), which will be held in Pakistan on Tuesday, October 15 and Wednesday, October 16.

According to Pakistani media reports, the organisation's secretariat has not sent any invitations to the Taliban.

So far, no country has recognised the Taliban administration as the legitimate government of Afghanistan.

The Express Tribune, citing diplomatic sources, reported that Afghanistan's membership in the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) has been inactive since September 2021 after the Taliban's entry into Kabul.

Afghanistan joined the SCO as an observer member on June 7, 2012.

Islamabad, as the host of the summit, expects to welcome the leaders of various countries and about 200 delegations.

Unlike the Taliban administration, the Mongolian government has been invited as an observer country.
