According to Enammullah Samangani, a member of the Taliban Cultural Commission, Akhundzada will be the country’s top leader and the executive in Afghanistan will be under the president or prime minister.

“The consultations on the new government … are practically over. There is no question about Akhundzada’s participation in the leadership of the country. He will be the head of government and there can be no doubts about that, “Samangani said.

Some media outlets have predicted that the head of the new Taliban government will be called prime minister, but so far there are no concrete indications as to who could become him.

Earlier, it was reported that talks between members of the Taliban leadership led by Akhundzada had taken place in Kandahar in recent days. During the debate, “political, social and economic issues were discussed,” including those related to the future government, according to reports.

On Wednesday there were reports that the Taliban had already elected the first members of the new government, including the foreign, defense and interior ministers.

Hibatullah Akhundzada has led the Taliban since May 2016. Born in Kandahar, he received his religious education in Pakistan and participated in a guerrilla war against Soviet forces sent to Afghanistan in the 1990s. Mr. Akhundzada is an important spiritual leader Taliban and has repeatedly been a referee in religious matters.
