The Russian Prosecutor General’s Office requested Monday that the Supreme Court ends a ban on the Taliban’s activities in the country.

Moscow’s foreign and justice ministries submitted an appeal last week to President Vladimir Putin urging the Taliban’s removal from Russia’s list of terrorist organizations.

The Taliban is a political and militant Islamist group that emerged in Afghanistan in the early 1990s, and has ruled in Kabul since the U.S. withdrew from the country in August 2021.

In July, Putin called the group “a trusted ally,” adding that the movement could help Russia’s fight against the Islamic State.

On Dec. 28, the Russian leader signed a law permitting the temporary suspension of bans on organizations included in the terrorist list.
