German authorities were caught in the fact that the export of supplies – among other things, a large number of beers and wine – from Afghanistan was organized earlier than the export of people from there who collaborated with Germany. This fact indicated the BILD newspaper.
It’s about 65 thousand beams of beer and 340 bottles of wine and champagne – these are 29 transport containers that have completed an additional place in military aircraft engaged in transporting people and property from the country. It is noted that at the same time, the authorities decided not to take thousands of Afghan citizens who risked their lives, working with foreigners.
A day before the publication in Bild, German Chancellor Angela Merkel stated that the Federal Republic of Germany intends to evacuate up to 10 thousand Afghans. First of all, we are talking about 2.5 thousand inhabitants of Afghanistan, who collaborated with the German military.
The US State Department issued a document in which 60 countries of the world (including Germany) called for a safe departure from Afghanistan foreign citizens and Afghans who want to leave the country.
