Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) leaders in its 20th Council of Heads of States summit in Tajikistan held on September 17 discussed Afghanistan without any member from Afghanistan, reports Tolo News. Although Afghanistan holds an observer status at SCO, this year no one was invited from Afghanistan to the meeting. Tajikistan President Emomali Rahmon at the summit said his country expects the Taliban to form an inclusive government. “The political, ethnic and lingual diversity and also gender equality have not been considered in the interim cabinet that the Taliban has announced. This means, in the next two to three years the extremism ideology will increase and it is possible that this destructive ideology will multiply in the neighboring countries,” he said.
