KABUL, 01 May 2022, (TON): Sources told “Islamic Emirate and Qatar as well Turkey have made progress on a contract for the technical affairs of the five major Afghan airports.”
The sources said the aviation services will be performed based on standard procedures after the Qatari and Turkish companies take responsibility for its technical operation.
Economists say that handing over the technical affairs of the airport to major companies will encourage airline companies to resume flights in Afghanistan.
Seyar Qureshi, an economist said “if this comes into practice, it will benefit Afghanistan. We can use our own airports for economic development and export.”
A former deputy minister of transport and civil aviation said that the Islamic Emirate will insist on providing security with its own forces, but Qatar and Turkey will deny it.
Imam Mohammad Warimach, deputy minister of transportation and aviation said “this issue may have been opposed by the Islamic Emirate, and therefore this issue has been delayed.”
