"On August 15 2021, Afghanistan’s democratic republic collapsed.
As the last US and NATO troops departed the country, the Taliban swept back
into power and the Afghan people braced for an uncertain future.
Despite promises of moderation and inclusion, four years later, the Taliban has
established a repressive, exclusionary regime – one that has dismantled
institutions of law, justice and civil rights with ruthless efficiency.
As the Taliban regime has tightened its grip, international attention has
waned. Crises in Ukraine, Gaza and elsewhere have dominated the global agenda,
pushing Afghanistan out of the spotlight.
With the Taliban seeking to end its isolation and gain legitimacy, can the
international community find the will now to exert real pressure?"
