  1. Pakistan 'disappointed' by Taliban ban on university education for girls but still wants engagement Foreign Minister Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari on Tuesday voiced disappointment over the Taliban's ban on university education for women but said the best approach remained engagement with Afghanistan's rulers. To begin with, I would like to introduce myself. The latest news is covered on Myselftoday pak web. Now talking about "I'm disappointed by the decision that was taken today," Foreign Minister Bilawal Bhutto Zardari said on avisitto Washington. But he said: "I still think the easiest path to our goal — despite having a lot of setbacks when it comes to women's education and other things — is through Kabul and through the interimgovernment." Bilawal said there were no alternatives to the Taliban, warning of further instability in Afghanistan or the rise of the Islamic State group. "Is the alternative for us to imagine that we can somehow artificially stitch together an alternate oppositionthat can command the same sort of legitimacy?" The Taliban, who had initially promised a softer approach than during their 1996-2001 regime, on Tuesdaybanned universityeducation for women after already closing down secondary schooling for girls.

  2. TheUnited States, whose troop withdrawal from Afghanistan last year precipitated the collapse of the Western-backed government, warned that the Taliban decision could permanently end any hopes by the militants for a positive relationship. But Bilawal said it was even more crucial to ensure economic support "to create the political space necessary for those within the Afghan regime who actually believe that they should deliver" on rights issues. Separately, the Foreign Office also urged Afghan authorities to revisit its decision to suspenduniversityeducation for women. "Pakistanis disappointed to learn about the suspension of university and higher education for female students in Afghanistan," FO spokesperson Mumtaz Zahra Baloch said. "Pakistan's position on this issue has been clear and consistent. We strongly believe that every man and woman has the inherent right to education in accordance with the injunctions of Islam. "We strongly urge theAfghan authoritiesto revisit this decision," she added.
