Secretary General of the Norwegian Refugee Council, NRC, Jan Egeland, listens to a question during an interview with The Associated Press in Kabul, Afghanistan, Sunday, Jan. 8, 2023. The Taliban's "internal debates and extreme decrees" are paralyzing humanitarian work in Afghanistan, the head of a major aid agency told The Associated Press on Sunday, after he arrived on a week-long trip to talk to Taliban leaders about reversing a ban on women working for national and international nongovernmental groups. Jan Egeland, who is the secretary-general of the Norwegian Refugee Council, is the first NGO chief to have visited Afghanistan to talk to the Taliban since the ban came into effect more than two weeks.
