Although the Taliban has vowed to absolve Afghans who helped US troops during the war, the regime has established checkpoints on roads leading to Kabul airport.
However, last week General Sir Nick Carter, Chief of the General Staff, said UK troops in Afghanistan have established a “straightforward relationship” with the Taliban.
Speaking to Kay Burley on Sky News, he said: “They are keeping the streets of Kabul very safe and indeed very calm. They are helping us at the airport.”
He added: “What we’re not getting are reports of them behaving in a medieval way like you might have seen in the past.”
Mr Johnson has been urged to push for sanctions against the Taliban at the G7 summit today.
President Biden has already shown his support for sanctions depending on the Taliban’s conduct.
