Taliban spokesman claims signed $450 mln deal with Australian group, company denies

24 November, 2021
The Taliban claimed they have signed a deal with Australian company Cpharm that wants to set up a cannabis processing center in Afghanistan, a Taliban spokesperson said on Twitter.
Taliban Press Director Qari Saeed Khosty said a contract had been signed and the project “will be up and running within days.”

However, the Australian company later made a statement to Reuters strongly denying any deals made with the Taliban.
Afghanistan’s deputy narcotics minister reportedly met with a representative of the company on Tuesday, who pledged a $450 million investment for the project, according to the Pajhwok news agency.
