Here's a significant comment from a friend: "It breaks my heart to see what is happening in Afghanistan and to think of what the future holds for its citizens, especially women and girls and the Hazara minority. Essentially, Trump handed over Afghanistan to the Taliban and legitimised them, even releasing 5000 of their fighters to help them, and Biden went along with him. Of course the corrupt and venal government of Afghanistan, which fails to pay and even feed and arm its troops properly, is also to blame, and the Taliban were never serious about the so-called peace negotiations, they were just a facade. But what can be done now? Can a government-in-exile, which should include at least 50% women, be formed and sign the Rome Statute of the ICC, so that it applies to Afghanistan? Is there anything we can do to support the women and girls of Afghanistan as they struggle to free themselves, or the Hazara minority facing genocide?"
