@thehillpolitics: Meryl Streep criticized the Taliban and the severe restrictions posed on women’s rights in Afghanistan since its takeover in 2021, urging the international community to do more. Streep, at an event on the sidelines of the U.N. General Assembly on Monday, said that a “cat has more freedom” than a woman in Kabul. “A squirrel has more rights than a girl in Afghanistan today, because the public parks have been closed to women and girls,” she said. #merylstreep #unitednations #politics #international #thehill
