Afghan Ambassador To Canada Forging Ahead, Despite Taliban Takeover
Afghanistan's ambassador to Canada said he and his staff are still working and committed to representing the people of that country, despite its new government.
It's been nearly three months since the Taliban's takeover of Afghanistan forced thousands to flee for their lives. Canada has pledged to settle 40,000 Afghan refugees. About 300 of them have come to Ottawa.
Afghanistan ambassador Hassan Soroosh said he and his team in Ottawa remain committed, not to represent the Taliban, but "the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan."
