The Ministry of Industry and Commerce spokesman Abdulsalam Javad Akhundzadeh says Afghanistan’s exports carried out regularly in the first three months of 1403 solar year and $304 million have been exported during this period.
Akhundzadeh said that most of these exports were made to Pakistan, Iran, the United Arab Emirates, India, Austria, Uzbekistan, Russia and other countries.
“Afghanistan’s exports and imports during the first quarter of 1403 solar year were about two billion and 577 million dollars, of which 304 million dollars were exports and 2.273 million dollars were imports,” he said.
Meanwhile, members of the private sector asked MoIC to provide more facilities in the field of transportation to increase the country’s exports.
“As much as the facilities are provided to the traders, they can take advantage of these good opportunities,” said Mirwais Hajizadeh, deputy of the Chamber of Agriculture and Livestock.
Economic experts believe that the more Afghan products are marketed in the world markets, the more exports will increase and will positively affect the country’s economic situation.
Earlier, the Islamic Emirate repeatedly emphasized that it has an economy-oriented policy and is trying to become a connecting point in the region in addition to increasing the export of Afghan goods to different countries.
