Will Make Our Own Money, Passport & Weaponry, Claims Taliban Minister

Noorullah Noori, the Taliban’s Minister of Borders and Tribal Affairs, has said that the group will soon make its own money, passports, weapons, and electricity.

Noori stated that the Taliban has effectively addressed all matters, but those who have left Afghanistan present an inaccurate picture.

Speaking at a gathering in Nangarhar province, he said that Afghanistan will achieve self-sufficiency in producing wheat, fruits, oil, and electricity "in a few days" and will soon make its own passports and weapons.

Noori criticised those who departed from the country following the group's return to power, labelling them as "Western slaves" who disseminate inaccurate information about their country to the international community.
