FollowAfter the Islamic militants seized control in Afghanistan on August 15, US President Joe Biden stated that he was confident China would try to reach an agreement with the Taliban on Tuesday. When asked if he was concerned that China would support the Group, which is legal in the United States, Biden told reporters, "China has a serious issue with the Taliban. So, I'm sure they'll attempt to work out some deal with the Taliban. Pakistan, Russia, and Iran all share this view. They're all attempting to figure out what they should do next."
The United States and its Group of Seven allies have agreed to coordinate their response to the Taliban, and Washington has barred the Taliban from accessing Afghanistan's reserves, the majority of which are held by the New York Federal Reserve, in order to ensure that they keep their promises to respect women's rights and international law.

Italy, the current president of the Group of 20 major economies, including China and Russia, has been attempting to organise a virtual G20 conference on Afghanistan. Still, no date has been established, implying disagreement within the Group. In a phone chat on August 29, Chinese State Councillor and Foreign Minister Wang Yi urged US Secretary of State Antony Blinken that the international community should interact with the Taliban and "positively guide" them.
