Taliban anarchy continues in Afghanistan. The people are living in an era of ruthless punishment and brutal rule. On the other hand, the country is falling into a financial crisis and there is no food for the people to eat. Lack of cash in terms of treasury has also made it difficult for exports and imports with neighboring countries.
In the wake of this, the Taliban government is asking banks to return their money stored in various banks around the world.
Past governments in Afghanistan have hoarded billions of dollars in the US Federal Reserve and other central banks in Europe.

But since the Islamist Taliban ousted a Western-backed government in August, the country’s governments have stopped withdrawing the money.
The Taliban government is now urging banks to return the money, given the current situation in their country. A spokesman for the Afghan Finance Ministry said: “The money belongs to Afghanistan. So, give us our money. Retaining cash reserves is against international law and values. ” he said.
They demanded that their government respect human rights, including education for women but not in the same class as man and requested release funds for humanitarian work.
The Taliban government is claiming to need at least $ 150 million every month to keep the economy running.
One of the central bank officials had called the European bank and asked them to release money not wanting the economy to collapse and people to immigrate to Europe. Which would cause greater problems for the European countries.
While the United States holds billions of Afghan funds they refuse to release them to the Taliban government and seems like the European banks might for precautionary purposes.
Despite the Taliban telling the world that it would give freedom to people and let them free no country is believing in their fake promises. As they are still trying to restrict women and also state that LGBTQ is not allowed and is a punishable offense under Sharia law.
