In the closed meeting, Foreign Minister Retno conveyed three hopes of the Indonesian government for the new government of Afghanistan. Namely inclusive governance, respect for women's rights, and ensuring Afghanistan does not become a hotbed of terrorists.
The meeting came eleven days after the Taliban seized control of the capital Kabul and five days before the deadline for the withdrawal of US troops from Afghanistan. Retno did not mention who the Taliban officials she met in Doha were.
A spokesman for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Teuku Faizasyah, explained that the Indonesian government would not be in a hurry to recognize the Taliban government in Afghanistan and would continue to follow developments in the ongoing internal processes in the Central Asian country.
"Are they able to build one government or an inclusive political system? The three things that the Foreign Minister (Minister of Foreign Affairs Retno Marsudi) said are important notes for Indonesia and I'm sure many countries also have the same view. So we hope these things can be achieved because it will create more promising conditions for Afghanistan's development from now on and in the future", said Faizasyah, Sunday, August 29.
