Kremlin's new stance: Russia first to officially recognise Afghanistan's Taliban government; will foster 'bilateral ties'
In a significant move, Russia has officially recognized the Taliban’s leadership in Afghanistan, becoming the first nation to do so since their 2021 takeover. This decision follows Moscow’s removal of the Taliban from its list of banned organizations. The Russian foreign ministry has received credentials from the new Afghan Ambassador, signaling enhanced bilateral cooperation.

Russia has become the first nation to officially acknowledge the Taliban’s leadership in Afghanistan since their 2021 takeover, following Moscow’s decision to remove the group from its banned organisations list on Thursday. The Russian foreign ministry confirmed receiving credentials from Afghanistan’s new Ambassador Gul Hassan Hassan.The foreign ministry stated that recognising the Afghan government would enhance “productive bilateral cooperation, AP reported.The Afghan foreign ministry called it a historic step, with Taliban foreign minister Amir Khan Muttaqi stating it sets “a good example for other countries.”The Taliban assumed control of Afghanistan in August 2021 after US and NATO forces withdrew. They have since sought global recognition whilst implementing their strict interpretation of Islamic law.Prior to Russia’s recognition, no nation had formally acknowledged the Taliban administration, though the group maintained high-level discussions and diplomatic relations with several countries, including China and the United Arab Emirates.The Taliban government has remained largely isolated internationally, primarily due to its restrictions on women.Despite initial promises of more moderate governance compared to their 1996-2001 rule, the Taliban began imposing limitations on women and girls shortly after taking power in 2021.Women face restrictions from most employment and public spaces, including parks, baths and gyms, whilst girls cannot pursue education beyond sixth grade.Russian officials have recently highlighted the importance of Taliban engagement for Afghanistan’s stability, and removed their ban on the group in April.Russian ambassador to Afghanistan, Dmitry Zhirnov, announced on state Channel One television that President Vladimir Putin authorised the official recognition based on foreign minister Sergey Lavrov’s recommendation.Zhirnov indicated that this decision demonstrates Russia’s “sincere striving for the development of full-fledged relations with Afghanistan.”
