Top Russia court to rule on lifting Taliban terror designation
Thursday, 17 April 2025 () Russia's Supreme Court is expected Thursday to remove the Taliban's designation as a "terrorist organisation", a symbolic gesture aimed at building friendly ties with Afghanistan's de facto rulers. Russia's prosecutor general asked the court to remove the group's "terrorist" designation last month, following several trips to Russia by top Taliban officials.
