- The Taliban has appointed Mawlawi Badreddin Haqqani as its first accredited ambassador to the United Arab Emirates (UAE), marking the second such envoy after China.
- The UAE foreign ministry did not respond immediately to a request for comment. No foreign capital has officially recognized the Taliban government, with only Beijing formally accepting an ambassador's credentials.
- The Taliban have sent envoys to several countries as 'chargé d'affaires.' Haqqani will soon present his credentials to the Emir of the UAE during an official ceremony.
- The Taliban maintain economic ties with the UAE, particularly since the UAE secured contracts to operate Kabul airport in 2022. Formal recognition of the Taliban is contingent on improvements in women's rights, as emphasized by many governments, especially Western nations.
