Pakistan's Special Representative Meets Roza Otunbayeva and Tarig Ali Bakheet at Girls' Education Conference

This meeting took place on Saturday (January 11) on the sidelines of the international conference titled "Girls' Education in Muslim Societies: Challenges and Opportunities," which is being held in Islamabad.

Mohammad Sadiq wrote on his X page: "We had fruitful discussions regarding the current situation in Afghanistan and the international community's efforts concerning the humanitarian needs of the country."

The Special Representative of Pakistan also met with Tarig Ali Bakheet, the OIC Special Representative for Afghanistan. During this meeting, discussions took place on the latest developments in Afghanistan and the efforts of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) to address the humanitarian situation in the country.

It is worth noting that the international conference on girls' education in Muslim societies, aimed at raising awareness about the importance of educating girls, began on Saturday in Islamabad and is continuing today.

Given the ban on girls' education above the sixth grade in Afghanistan by the Taliban, some of the participants at this conference have stated that they will discuss this issue and demand accountability from the Taliban regarding this matter.

This conference is being held at a time when, since returning to power, the Taliban has banned girls' education beyond the sixth grade in Afghanistan—an action that has been widely condemned by the international community.
