A spokesperson of the Taliban Inamullah Samangani in a Twitter post cited Mulaee Kabir as he said that they have completed the criteria for recognition.

As per Inamulllah Samangani, "Taliban has completed all the criteria for recognition and we hope that Norway will take the lead in recognizing them and will also do its part in releasing Afghanistan�s assets." Said the Deputy PM.

The Norwegian ambassador said though the country does not have an active embassy in Afghanistan, it is engaged in all incidents currently happening in Afghanistan.

It has been nearly six months after the Taliban recaptured power in Afghanistan but they have not been recognized by any country yet.
