Ahmad Masoud to create a government in exile?

Leader of the National Resistance Front of Afghanistan Ahmad Massoud is considering the possibility of creating a government of Afghanistan in exile.

On September 10, in an interview with Responsible Statecraft, he stated that he continues to fight against the Taliban regime in Afghanistan. According to him, the international community should also not cease its support in opposing the Taliban.

Massoud emphasized that to achieve victory for the National Resistance Front, it will be necessary to establish a government of Afghanistan in exile.

He noted that a lot needs to be overcome to achieve this.

“Creating a government in exile requires uniting many sides and groups to form a cohesive and fair government for all Afghans, and we will work towards this goal. But we are still far from it,” he said in an interview with Responsible Statecraft.

After the overthrow of Ashraf Ghani’s government in Afghanistan and the rise of the Taliban, one of the leaders of the anti-Taliban movements is speaking about the creation of a government in exile for the first time.

Experts believe that the Afghan opposition includes representatives of most ethnicities and minorities, and they have a chance to create their government in exile. However, the only thing preventing them is their lack of unity and solidarity.
