While several anti-Taliban protests have been held on the second anniversary of the fall of Afghanistan to the Taliban, the Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson said that "the future of Afghanistan is in the hands of its people".
On Tuesday, Wang Wenbin, the Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson, also described the Taliban's seizure of power as a "historic achievement”.
Wenbin called the fall of Kabul a “military, political and counter-terrorism failure for the US in Afghanistan which proves that military intervention, political infiltration and imposed democratic transformation only end up in turmoil and disaster”.
Wenbin emphasised on the formation of a broad-based "inclusive government framework and safeguarding the rights and interests of women and ethnic minorities” and asked the Taliban to "actively" respond to these expectations.
He also mentioned the expectations of the world to prevent terrorist activities in Afghanistan and said that they expect the Taliban to fulfil their obligations and destroy all terrorist organisations.
Wenbin also mentioned that over the past two years, China has provided large amounts of material aid in various forms through land, sea, and air transportation and helped Afghanistan improve its capacity for self-driven development.
