Michael McCaul, Republican chair of the US House Foreign Affairs Committee, has said that any aid or assistance Washington gives to Afghanistan has to be conditioned on treatment of women and children.In an interview with the Voice of America, McCaul said that girls in Afghanistan should be allowed to go to school and enjoy their fundemental rights.Referring to the restrictions against women, he said that Afghanistan has now returned to the “Stone Age”.McCaul also said that by not including the Afghan government in the Doha negotiations, Zalmay Khalilzad, the former US special representative for Afghanistan peace, made a big error.“They (Afghan government) felt like they were sidelined,” he said.McCaul also stated that the withdrawal of US forces from Afghanistan without an action plan was a “fatal flaw” because many Americans and their Afghan allies were left behind.This comes as the Islamic Emirate has said that the rights of women and girls are an internal issue of Afghanistan and Sharia laws must be respected.IEA has also said that foreign aid to Afghanistan is managed by international organizations and the Islamic Emirate does not use it.The post US aid to Afghanistan should be conditioned on treatment of women and children: McCaul first appeared on Ariana News.
