Zia Ahmad Takal, deputy spokesman for the Taliban's Foreign Ministry, announced the reopening of the Afghan embassy in Oman under the management of the group's diplomats.
The Afghan embassy in Muscat, the capital of Oman, began operating on Sunday under the supervision of the Taliban's Foreign Ministry, he said.
On Tuesday, the Taliban's deputy spokesman for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs wrote on his X social media page that the services of the Afghan embassy in Oman have been resumed in cooperation with the host country and the management of the group's diplomats in Muscat.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Kingdom of Oman has not yet officially commented on the matter.
The Taliban's deputy spokesman for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, however, called the reopening of the embassy and the resumption of its services a constructive step in strengthening the group's political, economic, and social relations with the Kingdom of Oman.
Earlier, the Taliban's Foreign Ministry announced on August 22 that the United Arab Emirates had accepted the credentials of the group's ambassador. According to the ministry, Badruddin Haqqani, the Taliban's former chargé d'affaires in the UAE, has been introduced as the group's ambassador to the UAE.
While no country in the world has recognized the Taliban so far, some countries in the region have accepted the group's diplomats at the chargé d'affaires level and a small number at the ambassador's level.
