Putin says Taliban ‘our allies’ in fighting terrorism
Moscow, Russia – AFP
Russian President Vladimir Putin said Thursday that the Taliban, a banned group in Russia, are Moscow’s “allies” in fighting terrorism because they are in control of Afghanistan.
“We must assume that the Taliban controls the power in the country. And in this sense the Taliban are, of course, our allies in the fight against terrorism, because any authorities are interested in stability in the state they govern,” Putin said in Astana.
