Women in Afghanistan

Women in Afghanistan have been oppressed for many years by the Taliban government. In light of recent events, as the US and the Northern Alliance collaborate to force the Taliban to leave, major cities emerged from the strict control of the Taliban. This is a picture of a woman who showed her face for the first time in five years since the Taliban took office. The future of Afghan women is uncertain. Clearly, the changes are neat, but to what extent I do not understand.

Today, the future of Afghan women is uncertain. The government still challenges the rights of women. Since the end of the US invasion of Afghanistan and the Taleban administration in 2001, Afghanistan has made major progress in a more stable form of government. However, the current president, Hamid Karzai, basically signed a law to legalize her husband's rape. Article 132 of the law stipulates that "a woman must observe her husband's sexual requirements and that he can expect to have sexual relations with his wife at least once every four nights" There. My wife has sex with him.

The interim Government of Afghanistan led by Hamid Karzai contains two women who frankly asserted the rights of women and vowed to deal with the discrimination faced by women in Afghanistan. The 45-year-old doctor Shima Sama was appointed one of the five deputy prime ministers, a combination of the women's highest ranking and women's problems in Afghanistan. Samar has exiled in Pakistan since 1983 and has provided physicians and food relief programs for Afghan refugees and has established several schools, hospitals and clinics to serve as officials of NGOs in Afghanistan I will. She criticized essential Burka because it reduces exposure of women to sunlight and reduces vitamin D intake, thereby exacerbating general diseases such as osteomalacia such as bone softening.

Women's organizations in Afghanistan have criticized the West's commitment to Burka and its removal; they believe that education and the right to work in politics and work are a real issue for liberating Afghan women ing. According to the Afghan Women's Revolutionary Association, a 25-year old women's rights organization, RAWA, the end of essential buruka is "a symbol of women's rights and freedom in Afghanistan." A 19 - year - old Layla who lives in a poor area of ​​Kabul pointed out the real problem.
