Moscow and Kabul are currently engaged in expert-level discussions exploring the possibility of recruiting Afghan migrants for employment in Russia.
Russia’s state news agency RIA Novosti quoted Zamir Kabulov, the Russian President’s Special Envoy for Afghanistan, confirming that technical talks and contacts between the two sides regarding the transfer of Afghan workers to Russian labor markets remain ongoing.
Kabulov emphasized that Russia is conducting negotiations in accordance with existing migration laws and economic considerations.
These discussions come amid growing attention in recent years to the employment of Afghan citizens abroad and the expansion of job opportunities in new markets.
The Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan is seeking to create employment opportunities domestically and internationally to improve family welfare and boost economic development.
