‘We want the world to trust us’ – Taliban says in first news conference

The Taliban “wants the world to trust us” and is not seeking revenge in Afghanistan after regaining control of the country, the group has said in a news conference.

A spokesman for the militant group said Afghanistan has now been “emancipated” as he appealed to people not to interfere in the transfer of power.

Speaking at the Afghan presidential palace, Zabihullah Mujahid said the group’s top priority is to create “law and order” for the capital Kabul – and assured the people of the city they would “live in peace”.
