As per Tolo News, a delegation of Kazakhstan, led by the deputy prime minister and minister of trade and integration, visited Kabul on Saturday and had meetings with a number of senior officials of the Islamic Emirate, including Mullah Abdul Gh Baradar.
The Taliban in order to improve relations asked this high-ranking Kazakh official to receive Taliban diplomats.
Former diplomat Noorullah Raghi, however, said that "Sending and accepting diplomats without official recognition ... is a one-way relationship and has one-sided benefits."
"If in general the international community, US, European Union, Russia, China does not give recognition, I don't think other countries will recognize the Islamic Emirate," Raghi said.
Afghstan has diplomatic missions in Tehran, Istanbul, Islamabad, Dubai, Moscow, Beijing, and a number of Arab and African nations, but no nation has recognized the Taliban.
