Afghanistan is not going to be ‘inclusive’ with reactionary fundamentalists at helm. That said, its good to see China is working with them because the U.S. sanctions have destroyed the country.
It’s still a good thing that China is politely reminding them that they expect to see more inclusive policies from the current Afghan government than they have demonstrated in the past.
And besides, you never know, given peace and economic recovery they could mellow out over time. I mean the same kind of pessimism might once have been said about Iran under its religiously conservative government, yet despite everything Iran is now actually an okay-ish inclusive society. Women receive an education same as men, they can work most jobs and they participate in politics, up to and including holding office there. It’s still far from ideal but it’s also not as bad as the West makes it out to be.
One of the moves China has done like this recently was during the belt and road, women being allowed to return to education was a pre-requisite that China put in for devolopment; It was east coast of africa, cant remember the name right now.

That sounds like a good model to employ in this case as well.

Afghanistan, isn’t that the Taliban? How would inclusive for those look like? Include women in cloth, every bit of them?
It seems they were talking about environmentalism and lifting people out of poverty, since that’s what currently causing more people to suffer. I don’t think we’ll see much development in that front but I also don’t think invading a country or installing a Western puppet regime to “favour women” is going to do much help in the region.
Ultimately such achievments would lead to social progressivism
What? You don’t support bombing against clothing restrictions? Obviously you don’t love your country!
