KABUL, Aug 21 (NNN-ANA) – Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar, political chief of Afghanistan’s Taliban, said, they intend to have economic and trade ties with all countries the world over.
“The Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan wants diplomatic and trade ties with all countries, particularly with the United States of America,” Baradar wrote on social media platform.
Baradar denied media reports that the Taliban has not intended to have diplomatic and trade ties with the United States.
“We never talk about cut of trade ties with any countries. Rumour about this news has been a propaganda. It is not true,” he said.
Earlier in the day, unconfirmed reports said, Baradar arrived in Kabul from southern Kandahar, to conduct consultation with Afghan leaders, about the creation of a new government. He returned to Kandahar from Doha, capital of the Gulf state of Qatar on Tuesday.
