EU leaders and Afghanistan’s neighbouring countries must listen to @volker_turk and @UNHumanRights: Afghanistan is not safe. Afghan women, children and men must not be forced back to Taliban rule, where they face grave risks. Deportation must not become an excuse for engaging with, legitimising or normalising a regime that violates human rights, imposes gender apartheid and persecutes its own people. Halt involuntary returns to Afghanistan. No normalisation of the Taliban. ohchr.org/en/press-releases/… #Afghanistan #NoToTaliban #StopTalibanNormalization #HumanRights #GenderApartheid #NoEUDealsWithTaliban #DontNormalizeTaliban #EUValuesMatter #HumanRightsNotDeportations @vonderleyen @kajakallas @AuswaertigesAmt @AussenMinDE @BfV_Bund @BMI_Bund @Left_EU @EPinASEAN @ManonAubryFr @Tineke_Strik @HannaGedin @SR_Afghanistan @EUCouncilPress @Europarl_EN @EP_President @ABaerbockArchiv @dieLinkeEP @EUCouncil @EUCouncilPress @Europarl_Photo @C_AB_ @HNeumannMEP @AWACB_DE @eui_org @eui_org @Europarl_EN @UNSC_Reports @BelgiumMFA @BelgiuminEU @unwomenchief @amnesty @UN_Women @unwomenpacific @ECPMF @heatherbarr1 @ProAsyl @RESCUEorg @DEonHumanRights @eu_eeas @EU_Justice

Thank you, Raquel García Hermida-van der Walle, Chair of the Delegation for Relations with Afghanistan, for keeping your promise after receiving our letter and for taking such a clear position yesterday. Inviting the Taliban to Brussels for deportation talks sends a dangerous and unacceptable signal. As long as the Taliban continue to violate human rights, impose gender apartheid, persecute women, minorities, journalists and activists, and fuel extremism, there must be no political normalization of the Taliban in Europe. #NoToTaliban #StopTalibanNormalization #GenderApartheid #HumanRights #Afghanistan #D66 #RenewEurope

Thank you, dear @HNeumannMEP , for taking such a clear and principled position. Inviting the Taliban to Brussels for deportation talks sends a dangerous signal. As long as they continue to violate human rights, impose gender apartheid and persecute women, minorities, journalists and activists, there must be no political normalization of the Taliban in Europe. #NoToTaliban #StopTalibanNormalization #GenderApartheid #HumanRights #Afghanistan

Taliban silenced Kabul's female hairdressers peacefully protesting, opposing their salon closures under their gender-apartheid regime. The @UN has again voiced their concerns. @tamanaparyaniP, discusses the matter with @bbcpersian #StopTalibanNormalization

We appreciate your insight on the rising terrorism threats. We cannot overlook the role of misinformation and false narratives in these challenges. The dangerous depiction of the Taliban's gender-apartheid regime in Afghanistan by @Tobias_Ellwood undermines the reality on the ground. The promotion of such views threatens to normalize those who harbor terrorist sentiments. We must ensure our efforts to counter terrorism extend to the narratives we promote. #StopTalibanNormalization

The tide is turning as #StopTalibanNormalization rallies voices against @Tobias_Ellwood's propaganda piece for the Taliban. Stand with us! Check the link to learn more: wearenrf.org/publications/tr…

#StopTalibanNormalization. Elwood faces backlash. Please keep retweeting.

📣 Progress for our #StopTalibanNormalization campaign! @Tobias_Ellwood faces major backlash for his Taliban propaganda. A no-confidence vote is a step closer to a rejection of Taliban normalization & a win for people's rights. @REWearmouth newstatesman.com/politics/uk…

In 2006, @Tobias_Ellwood was more concerned about the importance of ethnic self-determination in Afghanistan, acknowledging ethnic issues causing instability. Now, as he lobbies for ‘re-engagement’ with the group most responsible for inflaming these ethnic tensions, we remind him and question: isn't it time instead to reconsider the implications of a centralized system on the stability of Afghanistan? publications.parliament.uk/p… #StopTalibanNormalization
