Russia seeks Western countries to restore the connection of Afghan banks to the international SWIFT payment system, as this prevents the population assistance. This was stated by the director of the second Department of Asia Foreign Ministry, the Special Representative of the President of Russia in Afghanistan, Zamir Kabulov. Quote leads RIA Novosti.
“Now you need to save the Afghan people, without waiting for the children and adults will begin to die. In Kabul, the first snow fell, and winter in recent decades there are very harsh there. And there is nothing to trample there, there is nothing,” he explained.
In addition, the disconnection from SWIFT delivers difficulties and the US himself, convinced Kabulov: the executive can not directly help the Afghan people. For this reason, Moscow considers it important to fight in order to facilitate the possibilities of assisting Afghans.
