According to The Associated Press, the Taliban held a celebration at Bagram Air Base, which previously served as the center of U.S. operations against the Taliban and al-Qaida terrorists in Afghanistan.
“The Islamic Emirate eliminated internal differences and expanded the scope of unity and cooperation in the country,” Deputy Prime Minister Maulvi Abdul Kabir said in a speech urging Western countries to cooperate with the Taliban’s leadership. “No one will be allowed to interfere in internal affairs, and Afghan soil will not be used against any country.”
