Iran's Foreign Minister: The criterion of presence and absence of water is a technical and objective visit and not the issuance of a political statement

 

He wrote: "Taliban" did not provide the opportunity for the Iranian technical delegation to visit.

 

Abdullahian added: "In recent months, I have repeatedly asked the Taliban's Acting Minister of Foreign Affairs, Mullamatagi, to fulfill their obligations according to the Hirmand agreement and provide the possibility for technical delegations to visit and measure the water level, which they did not."

 

In this tweet, he stated that Iran's Sistan and Baluchistan Province is suffering from drought and added: The criterion was the absence of water, a technical and objective visit and not a political statement.

 

This statement is issued while messages were exchanged between the officials of the Islamic Emirate and the Islamic Republic of Iran in recent days regarding the provision of Iran's rights to the Helmand river.

 

The Islamic president of Iran warned the authorities of the Islamic Emirate yesterday to provide Iran with water from the Helmand Sea in accordance with the water agreement of 1351. On the other hand, the Islamic Emirate, while committing to the water treaty of 1351, spoke about the lack of water in Helmand's river source and emphasized on the implementation of the water agreement according to the amount of water in Helmand river.
