Afghan women react to Taliban allowing girls back in school as fears persist for their safety

The announcement back to school has Afghan women afraid of doing so because strict restrictions are enforced by the Ministry of Taliban Higher Education.

Such restrictions include separation of men and women. Women must wear Abaya and Niqab robes that cover most of the faces. Women also had to end their lessons five minutes earlier than men to stop them from mingling outside, and staying in the waiting room until their male colleagues had left the building.

Former Ambassador A.S. AT-Big For Global Women’s Problems and Members of the Coalition Advisory Council Vandenberg Kelley Eckels Currie to Fox News Taliban have a “medieval mindset against women.”

Before the US entered and put the Taliban after 9/11, Afghan women were forced to wear a burqa in public … they could not go anywhere without escorting men … forced to get married at any age … No Allowed to go to school “Currie explained.

Currie said Taliban claims had changed during the engagement with A.S. Lie.

We who have worked in Afghanistan know that only because they send their own daughter to school in Doha does not mean that they think that other Afghan women must be allowed to get education,” Currie said.

Anita McBride, Former Chief of Staff for Women’s First Laura Bush and Executive-in-Residence at the University of America shared the same sentiment.

Nothing shows the belief that the Taliban differs from previously in terms of their mentality, their views on women, their role in society,” McBride said.

McBride added that the current treatment for women in Afghanistan can be predicted, said, “Taliban is Mr. PR because they are desperate to be born on the world stage. They are warned that the economy is in difficulties that cannot serve the community. Afghanistan.”

Little lucky can escape to the US. Let’s say women no longer have rights in the Afghan community again.
