The UK does not recognise the Taliban as the government in Afghanistan, but will keep channels of communication open, Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab says, APA reports citing BBC.
He tells a press conference in neighbouring Pakistan this is necessary to try to help people still seeking to flee Afghanistan.
“There are particular cases outstanding which I won't go into because of the sensitivity, but we need to be able to have that dialogue,” he says.
He vows that the UK will be "shouldering our humanitarian responsibilities" amid concerns that countries neighbouring Afghanistan could see huge numbers of refugees arriving.
"We will also be supporting those countries who face greatest demands from those who may be displaced in the weeks ahead," he says.
