As Afghanistan’s government falls apart and its President Ashraf Ghani fled the country, the rights of people are in a jeopardy. While women have been asked to marry Taliban soldiers, on the flipside, they are also being asked to join in the process of forming a new government.

Germany has already retracted its funds from Afghanistan. It does not intent to fund the Taliban. A human rights debacle is being seen all over media as people flee for their lives, climbing over aircraft wheels, only to be killed midair. The desperation to flee control has been heart rendering. President of United States, Joe Biden has willfully taken the burden of being criticized for this decision to retract troops from Afghanistan. At heart was his thought that the country has to decide what it wants, on its own.

Meanwhile, a high-ranking official has said that it is well in talks with Doha over how to form a new government in Afghanistan. But many have tried to escape living under Taliban rule. Those who have been able to flee have sadly admitted that whatever progress they had made over 20 years has disappeared. The worst effected will be children and women.
