MEA dodges direct reply on Afghan Taliban FM Muttaqi's New Delhi visit

New Delhi, Oct 3 (UNI) The Ministry of External Affairs today dodged a direct answer on the upcoming visit next week of Afghan Taliban Foreign Minister Amir Khan Muttaqi, an event that will be watched keenly across the world, especially in neighbouring Pakistan with which Kabul’s ties have deteriorated significantly.
Answering a barrage of questions on the upcoming visit of the Afghan FM, the Ministry of External Affairs spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal only said that the UNSC has granted him an exemption from the travel ban to come to India.
“You would have seen the UNSC committee has given an exemption to the interim Foreign Minister of Afghanistan to travel to New Delhi. We will share further information as available,” is all the spokesperson was willing to divulge.
