fawzia koofi, welcome to hardtalk. thank you for having me.t's a great pleasure to have you in the hardtalk studio. it is now three years since taliban rule was restored in afghanistan. they have just passed a raft of new so—called vice and virtue measures in kabul. tell me about the impact of those measures, as you see it. you have put it very rightly after the, you know, three years since the taliban regime was restored. this is the right way to put it, because many people think, say, um, three years since the taliban victory, since they have taken power. ijust believe it's three years since afghanistan was handed over to taliban because of the moral defeat by all of us, especially international community. now, the new law... you're talking about the decision led by the united states of the western nations who'd been backing the afghan government to withdraw their troops, which, of course, then led to the collapse of the afghan national army and the taliban moving back in to kabul. exactly. so the withdrawal was like the last stage. obviousl

my guest is fawzia koofi, former deputy speaker of the afghan parliament.
