Why is China not recognizing your government?

JIRGA | Saleem Safi | Guest: Amir Khan Muttaqi (Former Minister of Information and Culture of Afghanistan) | 15th November 2021

Amir Khan Muttaqi (Pashto: امیر خان متقی‎ [ˈamɪr xɑn mʊtaˈqi]) is an Afghan Taliban politician serving as acting Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan since 7 September 2021.[1] He was also a member of the negotiation team in the Qatar office.[2]

ISLAMABAD: Afghanistan's Acting Foreign Minister Amir Khan Muttaqi has arrived in Pakistan on a three-day visit, Geo News reported Wednesday, citing the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA).

Per the report, a high-level ministerial delegation of the Taliban-led Afghan government also accompanied Muttaqi.

During his visit, the acting foreign minister will hold meeting with Prime Minister Imran Khan, his Pakistani counterpart, Shah Mahmood Qureshi, and other officials of the Pakistani government, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs said.

The Afghan delegation will also take part in the Troika Plus meet on Afghanistan — which is set to start on Thursday, November 11 — in which special representatives from China, the Russian Federation, the United States and Pakistan will also participate to discuss the situation in Afghanistan.

It should be noted that it is Muttaqi's maiden visit to Pakistan after assuming the office. Pakistan has still not recognised the caretaker setup in Afghanistan. However, FM Qureshi, after his visit to Kabul, had told the media that he had invited Mutaqqi to attend the Troika Plus meet.
