(Last Updated On: April 4, 2023)
Russia’s consulate in northern Mazar-e-Sharif has reopened after almost two years, Russia’s presidential envoy for Afghanistan Zamir Kabulov said Monday.
Speaking to Russia’s state-run TASS news agency, Kabulov said Alexey Pereverzev had been appointed as consulate general to the mission in Mazar.
This comes after Russia closed its consulate in Mazar in July 2021 amid rising tension in the north of the country at the time.
