Afghanistan under Taliban power, month 1: Everything is uncertainties, prohibitions and divisions

A month they have been sending Afghanistan again.There are no longer the spotlights on the airport of which the lucky ones escaped who had connections with Western countries or Joe Biden speaks daily to say that the exit of their troops was the climax to a “mission fulfilled”, but the days continue to pass under theIslamist command, with some important transformations but, above all, with enormous uncertainty due to the course that the new government will finally adopt.In the background, a terrible humanitarian crisis in which exile, persecution, drought and hunger adds.

Imposition, not management

The Taliban were made in just two hours with Kabul's government buildings and with the presidential palace.Photos were taken in their facilities, entered the archives of the most sensitive ministries, such as defense and interior, to make lists of suspects collaborators with the US and other powers and began to patrol each street with their militias.

Its white and black flag waves through the corners, covering spells of colors or faces of women, press wheels have been called, interviews have been granted to international media and, finally, a government has been announced.Mulá Mohammad Hassan Akhund is the acting prime minister, while Mulá Abdul Ghani Baradar, political leader of the Taliban, is the Deputy Prime Minister.In the Cabinet -Sorpresa? -, not a woman.

Afganistán bajo el poder talibán, mes 1: todo son incertidumbres, prohibiciones y divisiones

All these steps, however, have served to be imposed in forms, obviously augated by the fear that citizens keep before the very hard hand that they already exhibited in their previous stage in power, from 1996 to 2004, to the American invasion ofPunishment for his support for Al Qaeda.However, there is no management.They have been seen with a government in the hands, advanced in the last 20 years on the medieval embers that they left, and that they do not know where to take.

The buildings of the Administration, according to the local press that the existence is played to tell and the international displaced to the country, are empty and there is no one giving orders, in any matter other than security.There are no teams, only Taliban groups around a leader or minister, little else.The officials who have so far known about public policies are locked up, hidden, or have escaped from the country for fear of reprisals.

To this is added the division that is within the Taliban, according to media such as the BBC or Reuters, between the most radical and the most pragmatic.It seems that the former are winning, says AP.The Mulá Baradar has had to deny these disputes and get out of information that pointed out that he was injured in an internal fight precisely by pure power.He has been missing a week and the alarms sounded.His Hassan's partner has not known anything for a month.From some hierarchs of the new government there is no just news since a month ago they came to power and there is talk of murders.
