MOSCOW (Sputnik) — Afghanistan is experiencing political, social and security instability, as the Taliban militant group and other extremist organizations such as Daesh, which is banned in many countries, including Russia, continue to stage attacks against civilian and state targets.
"We have a lot of questions about the sources of financing of this terrorist organization [Daesh], on those who are behind it… Along with our colleges from the UN Security Council Sanctions Committee we… calculated that all the revenues that Daesh collects in Afghanistan hardly covers 30 percent of their budget. 70 percent of the funds come from abroad," Zamir Kabulov said, speaking at the Moscow Conference on International Security.
"We are collecting evidence, and then we will share the information on those whonurtures and cultivates Daess, with the international community," Kabulov, who was the Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of Russia to the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan until September 2009, pointed out.
