Dear Ladies and Gentlemen,
Afghanistan is in a state of war. As long as peace and order have not been established in Afghanistan, no one is allowed lease Afghanistan's natural resources. It would be like an attack to exploit Afghanistan's current situation and plunder its natural resources. Such action would be comparable to the example of throwing a person to the ground with forceful blows and then stealing valuables from his pockets. Whether it is China or other countries, they should show respect for our country and our people and be ashamed to take advantage of Afghanistan's unstable state. Afghanistan is currently in a weak phase. Some countries want to start plundering our natural resources because of this weakness of Afghanistan. Honest countries and governments wouldn't do that.
As we clarified in our letter dated December 30, 2021, all agreements with the Taliban regarding Afghan mineral resources are invalid and will not be recognised. We will only deal with Afghan mineral resources after stability, peace and order have been restored in Afghanistan.
To the Taliban:
Caution! Don't touch Afghanistan's natural resources. You have harmed Afghanistan to a great extent. You are not allowed to lease Afghan mineral resources. Your any agreements regarding the mineral resources are invalid.
Kind regards
Hayattullah Maiwand
