‘Women can't be ministers, they should just give birth’

Taliban spokesperson Sayed Zekrullah Hashimi told TOLO News that he did not think women could be ministers.

"A woman can't be a minister, it is like you put something on her neck that she can't carry. It is not necessary for women to be in the cabinet - they should give birth.

Women protesters can't represent all women in Afghanistan," he said.

Hashimi added: "We do not consider them half. What kind of half? “
