Taliban Writes to Shanghai Cooperation Organization

Oct. 16 – The Taliban has written a letter to the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) asking it to intervene in the growing conflict in Afghanistan.

The letter was addressed to the SCO meeting held in Beijing this Wednesday. According to The Times of India, the letter said: “We call on the Shanghai Cooperation Organization to assist countries in the region against colonialists and adopt a strong stance against the occupation of Afghanistan.”

The Taliban, who call themselves, “the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan,” promised that if they return to power they would establish friendly relations with all neighboring states after all foreign troops have been expelled.

The Times of India reports that the Taliban asked the group to “not to trust the propaganda of the colonial powers as the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan would not damage any country and would rather open the door for strengthening peace, stability and economic cooperation in the region, ” adding that, “Both Nato and U.S. forces in the excuse of fighting terrorists have been killing the people of Afghanistan.”

The letter appears to be taking advantage of the differencing viewpoints within the SCO group with a jab at keeping the United States out of Central Asian issues.

    Hi!
    This is a high time for the countries which are not in the western bloc to form a formidable military alliance before it is too late. Of late, The devilish empire of the US is trying to project its wing in the form of “FULL SPECTRUM DOMINANCE” as it is trying to encircle Russia, China and India from all sides. Never trust the West. High time for India and Pakistan; and India and China to keep asides their regional conflicts and tackle the much larger and dangerous enemy US & its armed wing the NATO.
    The west in the name of regime change, humanitarian and democracy is pounding up the civilians all over the world at their will. make an alliance such that they wont dare to attack more innocent civilians and people all around the world. Lets join hands and keep them at bay. kick uncle sam’s ass from the Eurasian zone and let them confined to their home and only world peace will be attained.
