The Ministry of Interior of the Taliban government announced that a new agreement to prevent drug trafficking across borders was reached during their delegation's visit to Uzbekistan. Both sides have decided to establish a joint technical group to enhance coordination and operational efficiency.
The Taliban's Deputy Minister for Counter-Narcotics met with the Uzbek Minister of Interior, emphasizing the vital importance of strengthening bilateral cooperation. Uzbek officials also expressed their full readiness to jointly combat this malicious phenomenon and secure their shared border regions.
Uzbekistan has repeatedly expressed significant concerns regarding the smuggling of narcotics from the Afghan borders in recent months. The country's border forces have successfully intercepted and confiscated several large shipments of opium and hashish before they could enter their territory.
