Taliban Foreign Minister Amir Khan Muttaqi To Visit India After UNSC Waiver, First Such Trip Since Kabul Takeover

Officials confirmed that the UNSC’s 1988 sanctions committee approved an exemption on September 30, permitting Muttaqi to travel to India between October 9 and 16. He is expected to meet external affairs minister S Jaishankar on October 10. Muttaqi was earlier unable to visit in September when the waiver was blocked, reportedly due to objections from the US and Pakistan.
