Taliban install new diplomat without telling Germany: Report
"The unilateral move appears to highlight the Islamist group's efforts to assert control over Afghanistan's diplomatic missions abroad, despite lacking official recognition from almost all of the world's nations, including Germany."
"Confidential documents show that Nebrasul H. acts and signs as charge d'affaires, a diplomat who heads an embassy or diplomatic mission in place of a full ambassador."
"Germany is now the only EU member state where the Islamist group is effectively running an embassy, with the German government unaware of his more senior role."
A Taliban member, Nebrasul H., has been appointed as the head of the Afghan embassy in Berlin without the German government's knowledge. This move underscores the Taliban's efforts to control Afghanistan's diplomatic missions abroad despite lacking official recognition. Nebrasul H. was initially approved as a low-level consular official to assist with deportations. However, he has been secretly appointed as charge d'affaires, acting in a senior diplomatic role. The German government was not informed of this appointment, highlighting a significant diplomatic oversight.
