KABUL: The Ministry of National Defense, in a statement in connection with the agreement between the United States and Uzbekistan, said today that any deal regarding the fate of Afghanistan’s helicopters and airplanes is unacceptable.
“The United States does not have the right to donate or confiscate assets belonging to the people of Afghanistan,” said the statement.
In the statement, the Ministry of National Defense has asked the government of Uzbekistan to refrain from any kind of deal regarding Afghanistan’s airplanes.
“As a good neighbor, Uzbekistan should take a wise decision and cooperate in handing over the aircraft of the Afghan Air Force,” the statement said.
The US ambassador in Uzbekistan recently told the media that his country has reached an agreement with Uzbekistan over the fate of Afghanistan’s helicopters and airplanes in that country.
