The Russian government is actively working on removing the Taliban from its list of terrorist organizations, a move that has been under consideration by the Russian Foreign Ministry, the Ministry of Justice, and other specialized agencies. This initiative was highlighted as the Russian state news agency TASS reported the invitation of a Taliban delegation to participate in the Russia-Islamic World: KazanForum in Kazan, scheduled for May. The decision to officially remove the Taliban's terrorist status is pending and will ultimately be made by the top leadership of the Russian Federation. Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov confirmed that discussions are ongoing, as Russia views the Taliban as the de-facto authority in Afghanistan. This development marks a significant shift in Russia's stance towards the Taliban, considering that in December 2023, Moscow's Afghanistan representative Zamir Kabulov stated there were no plans to remove the Taliban from the terrorist list. Notably, the Taliban movement is currently banned in Russia.
