UN Secretary-General Atonio Guterres said that they didn\u2019t invite the Taliban in the first round of the conference, but they sent an invitation to the Taliban for the second Doha conference.<\/p><\/div>\n
Guterres said that it was not the right time to meet with the Taliban. Similarly other groups of the Afghan segment including civil society members, women rights activists, and the majority of foreign countries’ representatives were not invited in the first conference.<\/p>\n
However, in the second round of talks, foreign representatives held four sessions in the two-day conference, where they discussed human rights issues, including women, and girls\u2019 rights, inclusive governance, counterterrorism, and topics related to drug trafficking.<\/p>\n
The aim behind these sessions was to achieve a collective view and develop an international approach regarding Afghanistan, but these meetings, according to Guterres, were not meant for recognition of the Taliban.<\/p>\n
