Contributing sentiments towards policy:

49% : The European Union said on Sept. 8 that the Taliban have fallen short on maintaining its promises of the "inclusive and representative formation in terms of the rich ethnic and religious diversity of Afghanistan we hoped to see" after the group announced the formation of its acting government on Sept. 7, a group that included no women or non-Taliban figures.
44% : "The Taliban have vowed to respect women's rights, but women's rights are disappearing from the landscape," Nasir Ahmad Andisha, the Afghan ambassador to the United Nations in Geneva, said earlier this month.
