Two Taliban leaders spoke about the position on the relationship with Israel, the movement's efforts to gain recognition of its government by countries around the world, and the party that obstructs these efforts.
This came in conjunction with the passage of a year since the withdrawal of US forces from Afghanistan and the movement's control of the reins of affairs in Kabul.
Taliban spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid said that the United States of America is putting pressure on the international community to block its official recognition.
In statements he made to a local TV channel on Thursday, Mujahid said that the Taliban's failure to obtain official recognition so far is due to the failure of some powerful countries in the world to allow it.
"Some countries do not want an Islamic government to be established somewhere, or they do not want to allow it," he added.
When the announcer asked him whether he meant the United States of America, Mujahid said, "Yes, 100%. It has not yet allowed and obstructed that."
It is noteworthy that the Taliban formed an interim government in Afghanistan after taking control of the reins of affairs in the country, since mid-August 2021.
With enthusiastic songs and a military display of equipment left by foreign soldiers, the Taliban celebrated the day before yesterday, Wednesday, the anniversary of the restoration of "freedom" in Afghanistan, one year after the withdrawal of the international coalition led by the United States;
This allowed the movement to regain power over the cable.
Crowds in Kabul chanted "Death to America," "Death to the occupiers" and "Long live freedom," as movement officials gathered to celebrate at the former Bagram Air Force Base, the primary center for US forces during the war.
The Afghan government said in a statement that "God has given our Islamic nation this tremendous freedom and victory."
