Concerns of humanitarian crisis in Afghanistan
Taliban leaders will resume talks with Western countries in Norway this morning - as they push for billions of pounds of funding to be released.
There are concerns of a humanitarian crisis, with people in the country facing starvation.
There are concerns up to 23 million Afghans face starvation without increased aid - while several women have been protesting over basic human rights.
Dr. Marissa Quie is a former adviser to the Afghan peace and reintegration programme:
It's the Taliban's first trip to Europe since taking power.
The group's presence has sparked protests over concerns it will legitimise their position.
Taliban spokesman Abdul Qahar Balkhi says it needed to happen:
