Zabihullah Mujahid, the spokesman for the Islamic Emirate, without specifying when, said ambassadors to Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, and Azerbaijan would be officially introduced.

Asked about where the ambassadors would be appointed, the spokesman for the Islamic Emirate said, “It will be to Uzbekistan, as well as Kazakhstan and Azerbaijan.”

Several political experts said the appointment of new ambassadors by the Islamic Emirate to these countries will be beneficial for improving the relationships of the interim government with these nations.

Salim Paigir, a political expert, said: “For now we have interactions, not formal relations. It would be better for the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan to have a systematic legal system so that the world can have formal relations with us.”

Moeen Gul Samkani, a political expert, said: “The government has managed over the past few years to normalize its relations with neighboring countries, the region, and beyond; for instance, to China, to whom we were able to send our ambassador.”

Previously, the Islamic Emirate had only appointed an official ambassador to China.
