Ahmad Massoud, the leader of the National Resistance Front in Afghanistan, has garnered support from the United States Congress in his efforts to resist the Taliban government, Daryo’s correspondent in Afghanistan reported. The Chairman of the U.S. Congress, Michael McCaul, expressed a strong desire to assist Masoud in overthrowing the Taliban regime.

McCaul highlighted the importance of reaching out to "leaders of the North," referring to the Northern Alliance, in an effort to gather support for overthrowing the Taliban regime. He emphasized the need to explore diplomatic solutions but made it clear that the United States would not resort to bribing the Taliban.

"We can try to change the behavior of the Taliban, but we don't want to bribe them. I would like to talk to those leaders of the Northern Alliance who are active and alive," stated McCaul during a recent press conference.

The chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee outlined the primary objective as ensuring that Afghanistan does not pose a threat to the United States and the Western world. McCaul asserted that all possible means would be employed to achieve this goal.

"The United States is committed to ensuring that Afghanistan does not pose a threat to its own citizens and the international community," stated McCaul.

Simultaneously, the U.S. Congress, through its Foreign Relations Committee, has called for efforts to ensure the protection of women's rights in Afghanistan. Expressing concern for the people living under the Taliban's rule, McCaul lamented; 

"They are not good people; they are forced to live under the cruel reorganization of the Taliban." He conveyed a sense of urgency in finding a resolution to the situation.

Resistance Front Welcomes Dialogue Proposal

In response to McCaul’s statements, the National Resistance Front of Afghanistan has welcomed the proposal for future dialogue and cooperation with democratic forces opposing the Taliban.

Maysam Nazari, the foreign relations officer of the Resistance Front, expressed eagerness to strengthen relations with Afghanistan's friends in the international community, particularly the United States. 

"Afghanistan has become a haven for international and regional terrorist groups, including Al-Qaeda, ISIS Khorasan, and others, all of which are under the umbrella of the Taliban," Nazari highlighted the current situation in Afghanistan.
