Taliban Reject Creation of 'Safe Zone' in Kabul as Unnecessary
20:36 GMT 29.08.2021 (Updated: 13:23 GMT 06.08.2022) MOSCOW (Sputnik) - The Taliban (a terrorist group, banned in Russia) on Sunday discarded the idea of creating a UN-controlled "safe zone" in Kabul as unnecessary.
French President Emmanuel Macron said on Saturday that Paris and London would be holding talks on Monday to discuss the creation of a "safe zone" to allow for continuity of humanitarian operations.
"This is not necessary. Afghanistan is an independent country. Could such a zone be created in France or the United Kingdom?" Taliban spokesman Suhail Shaheen told France Inter broadcaster.
