A number of Russian investors met with the Islamic Emirate Deputy prime minister, Mowlawi Abdul Salaam Hanafi and discussed economic projects including refinement and excavation of gas and petroleum.
Islamic Emirate spokesperson Zabiullah Mujahid Twitted the Deputy PM has met with Russian investors in Kabul on Sunday, January 3, 2022.
Mujahid wrote that Hanafi welcomed the willingness of Russian investors for extracting Afghanistan’s gas and oil and assured them of providing a conducive environment for further investment in the country.
