Almaty. October 17. Silkroadnews - The Russian Foreign Ministry called the reports by British media saying Russia delivers oil products to the Taliban a shreer fake, the Afghan Telegraph Agency reports.
“Officials in Moscow noted the articles in The Times, which other UK media picked and circulated later, regarding a new ostensible fact of funding of the Talibs’ movement by Russia,” TASS quotes the statement by the Russian Foreign Ministry. “These articles quote some unnamed sources in the Taliban that speculate about Moscow’s objectives in Afghanistan and about the alleged free supplies of Russian oil products to the Talibs.”
The ministry said it would upload The Times article in the section of its homepage exposing the publications that contained untrue information on Russia as fresh samples of disinformation circulated in Western media.
