Brussels: A delegation from the Afghan Taliban is travelling to Brussels Tuesday for closed-door talks with European Union staff, expected to focus on deportations, said a Taliban official.
Rights groups said the meeting undercuts the EU’s human rights obligations and could endanger people in Europe and Afghanistan.
Belgium issued 24-hour visas to the Taliban delegation, which includes New Zealand-born Abdul Qahar Balkhi, a spokesperson for the Taliban’s foreign ministry.
