At the seventh meeting of the Moscow format on Afghanistan, such nonsense as the ultimatum statements of the United States on the Bagram airbase will not be discussed. This was stated to TASS by the adviser to the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation, the special representative of the President of Russia for Afghanistan, Zamir Kabulov.
"No, such nonsense will not be discussed," the diplomat said.
As EADaily reported, US President Donald Trump demanded the return of the former American Bagram airbase, threatened the Taliban with "bad things" in case of refusal. In Kabul, they said they would never agree to this.
