Russia: Foreign spy organizations financially support ISIS in Afghanistan

Afghan Voice Agency (AVA) - Kabul: Maria Zakharova, spokeswoman of the Russian Foreign Ministry, in a press conference on the sidelines of the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum, said in an interview with the media: "The security situation in Afghanistan is tense. It is clear that ISIS is carrying out activities "It is subversive against the current authorities of the countries. At the same time, it seeks to undermine stability in the countries of Central Asia."
 
He added that with the encouragement of foreign forces, ISIS members themselves have confirmed that this terrorist group receives funding from foreign intelligence organizations and that there are foreign terrorists among them.
 
Zakharova went on to say that economic and humanitarian problems are the result of the dual policy that Washington and its allies follow and continue to associate humanitarian aid to the people of this country with political concessions from the Afghan leadership.
 
Referring to the recent aid shipment of food to the United Nations World Food Program, Zakharova emphasized: Russia, in turn, continues to provide free aid to the people of Afghanistan.
 
This is despite the fact that Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov had previously said that the United States strongly supports "terrorist groups" such as ISIS and Al-Qaeda in Afghanistan.
 
He said: "These cases are false statements in the language of diplomacy. It is well known that America actively supports ISIS militants in Afghanistan, Al-Qaeda and other terrorist groups affiliated with it. The goal is not to allow Afghanistan to calm down."
