Taliban Amnesty Policy

The Taliban Amnesty Policy refers to their promise of forgiveness and protection for individuals who previously opposed their government, particularly during the years of conflict in Afghanistan. Announced after the Taliban regained control in 2021, this policy aimed to encourage former officials, soldiers, and others to remain safe and avoid retribution. However, its implementation has been controversial and inconsistent, with reports of continued persecution and human rights abuses. The policy underscores the Taliban's attempt to establish legitimacy while navigating a complex landscape of trust and fear among the Afghan population.
