Talks between the Taliban and the international community in Qatar today will centre on measures to combat the production of illegal drugs and the economy.
The UN-led meeting is the first to include Taliban officials since they seized power in Afghanistan more than three years ago.
However, the absence of women at the Taliban’s insistence has prompted criticism from rights groups and activists.
The Taliban’s spokesperson said they wanted to engage, but urged others not to interfere in issues they describe as internal, including women’s rights.
