Taliban say China will be its main partner and will help rebuild Afghanistan.

In an Interview, spokesperson Zabihullah Mujahid said the Taliban value China’s Belt and Road Initiative as the project will revive the ancient Silk Road.

He said China will also help Afghanistan fully utilise its rich copper resources and give the country a path into global markets.

Speaking about the Kabul airport, Mujahid said the facility is fully under Taliban control but has been seriously damaged.
