Cabinet

Post-Republic transitional government (2021)

On the first days of the new regime, tentative nominations to the cabinet were announced until late August 2021, [1] [2] [3] including the acting ministers of Public Works, [4] Water and Energy, Education and the acting Head of the Central Bank among other high-ranking officials were appointed. [5] Since there was no official head of government yet established, Supreme Leader Hibatullah Akhundzada directly appointed the caretaking ministers. Additionally, Wahid Majrooh, a minister of the old regime, stayed in office after cooperating with the Taliban until the end of September. [6]

Controversies arose when the Taliban said in early September 2021 that women would not be allowed to "work in high-ranking posts" in the government [7] and "ruled out" women in the cabinet. [8] On 24 August 2021, Fawzia Koofi, a former member of the Afghan National Assembly, had said that a men-only government would "not be complete". [9] Early September street protests by women in Herat and Kabul called for women to be included in the new government. [10] [11] [7]

Akhund caretaker cabinet (2021–)

On 7 September 2021, a men-only "caretaker cabinet" [12] was appointed by Akhundzada, headed by Hasan Akhund as Prime Minister. [13] [14] The Ministry of Women's Affairs was abolished. [14] This was followed by three more major rounds of appointments on 21 September [15] , 4 October [16] [17] and 23 November 2021. [18] Among those were the nominations of two Taliban veterans as deputy ministers. [19] Afghanistan's main political parties objected to the choice of acting cabinet members as non-inclusive, with the pro-Tajik Jamiat-e Islami describing it as "more monopolist and extremist in politics and power than the previous imposed leaders", and Atta Muhammad Nur seeing it as a "sign of hegemony, monopoly and a return to the past". [20]

As of 29 January 2022, no other country had formally recognized the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan as the de facto government of Afghanistan. [21]
