Press release on Ambassador of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan to the Russian Federation Gul Hassan Hassan presenting copies of his credentials

On July 3, Deputy Foreign Minister Andrey Rudenko accepted copies of credentials from newly appointed Ambassador of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan to the Russian Federation Gul Hassan Hassan.

We believe that the official recognition of the Government of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan will give an impetus to the development of productive bilateral cooperation between our countries in various areas.  We see considerable prospects for interaction in trade and the economy with a focus on projects in energy, transport, agriculture, and infrastructure. We will continue to assist Kabul in strengthening regional security and fighting terrorist threats and drug crime. Promoting ties in education, sports, culture, and the humanitarian area is also a valuable asset helping to strengthen friendship between our peoples.
