I have not received any definitive data on what this government will be like, who will enter it and who will not ... there are expectations that any government that will be formed now will be truly inclusive, " conferences.

Blinken expressed the hope that among the representatives of the new government in Afghanistan there will be not only the Taliban *, but also people who represent other groups and interests.

“It is important who will enter the government, but more importantly, what actions it takes.

A representative of the radical Taliban movement earlier said that there was no intention to form a coalition government in Afghanistan.

He noted that the Taliban agree only to "full power" and do not intend to include any other political forces in the interim government.
