Afghan Women's Network Pres.: Women's Rights May Go Back 200 Years If Taliban Not Held Accountable

Mahbouba Seraj, president of the Afghan Women's Network and a longtime advocate for women's rights, says the Taliban have already restricted women's freedoms since taking over the country, despite their assurances that they have shifted their views since the last time they were in power. If they continue like this, ... Afghanistan will go back another 200 years," says Seraj. One cannot just disregard the women of Afghanistan and say they don't exist. This doesn't work."
