Ambassador of Russia in Afghanistan stated reasons for escalation in Panjshter

The overestimated demands of the forces of resistance to the militants of the Radical Movement “Taliban” (a terrorist organization forbidden in Russia) could provoke an escalation in the Afghan province of Panjscher. This was stated by the Russian ambassador to Kabul Dmitry Zhirnov, reports RIA Novosti.

Diplomat noted that the Panjucherts requested too many places in the new authorities. According to him, the Taliban believes that the requested number of places is disproportionately, the share of the Tajik population in the republic.

Other reasons for the exacerbation of the fat conflict called the requirement of representatives of the front of resistance on coordination with them all candidates in the governing bodies of Afghanistan. According to the ambassador, the rebels of autonomy also played his role. “We have information that Panjuckers requested autonomy not only for themselves, but also for a number of governments with a predominantly not Pashtun population,” he told.

Earlier it became known that after the fighting forces of the front of the resistance and militants “Taliban”, the province of Panjscher and part of the province of Kapsa remained without electricity. It is noted that representatives of the local energy company will begin work on the restoration of electricity supply in the province, when appropriate conditions will be created for this.
