About 40 former employees of the Afghan embassy in Iran are leaving the embassy, handing over their authority to Taliban diplomats.
On one hand, representatives of the National Resistance Front in Afghanistan and other Taliban opponents accuse Iran of handing over the Afghan embassy in Tehran to the Taliban.

The Taliban seized power in Afghanistan on August 15, 2021, but no country has yet recognized the Taliban government. Meanwhile, over the past year and a half, several neighboring countries of Afghanistan, including Turkmenistan, Pakistan, and now Iran, have handed over the Afghan embassy to the Taliban.
Most countries in the region, such as China, Russia, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, and Kazakhstan, have established good relations with the Taliban government.
Tajikistan, despite criticizing the Taliban government from high platforms, has its embassy in Kabul operating normally, and good trade relations have been established between the countries.
