欧美文化:Afghan gov't to turn former U.S. military bases into economic zones
KABUL, Feb. 19 (Xinhua) -- The Afghan caretaker administration has decided to change former U.S. military bases into economic zones to bolster economic activities, the state-run Bakhtar news agency reported on Sunday.
The decision has been taken at a meeting of the Economic Commission with Deputy Prime Minister Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar on the chair, Bakhtar said in its report, adding that the pilot project would begin from Kabul and Balkh, and expand to other parts of the country.
The military bases, after turning into economic zones, would be gradually handed over to the Ministry of Commerce and Industries, Bakhtar reported.
The United States and its allies pulled out troops from Afghanistan in August 2021, leaving the military bases behind.
