Washington allowed American State Structures and NPOs to work with the Taliban militants (a terrorist organization prohibited in Russia) in Afghanistan bypassing current international sanctions. This became known from the report of the Chief General Inspector of the United States Sean W. O’Donnela about the operation “Guard of Freedom”.
According to information from the report, in the framework of the US military operation, the US authorities issued an official permission to state authorities and a number of organizations to interact with the Taliban.
Earlier, O’Donnel stated that the main mistake in the preparation of the Afghan military was an attempt to create an army on an American pattern. According to the report, US forces used in Afghanistan “overly American models”, which were not adapted to the specific needs of the Afghan Armed Forces.
Before this US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken spoke about the fate of the American weapon in the hands of the Taliban. He doubted that the arms left could be transferred to other groupings. According to the diplomat, there is no evidence of the transfer of weapons to terrorist organizations.
