Earlier this month Beheshta Arghand made Afghan history by interviewing a Taliban official on TV. But now the 24-year-old Afghan journalist has fled the country. Here's what she told me via WhatsApppic.twitter.com/RIXdgDA1UM

She told me she hopes to return: "If the Taliban do what they said -- what they promised -- and the situation becomes better, and I know I am safe and there is no threat for me, I will go back to my country and I will work for my country. For my people."https://www.cnn.com/2021/08/29/media/arghand-fleeing-afghanistan/index.html …

She is a brave woman. Her leaving along with many others are a loss for the country...sadly. Hopefully things will get better and safer so she can go back along with so many others for the good future of Afghanistan. For now, her safety is priority.
