US issues new general license on Afghanistan financial transactions

Late last month, the US approved a new general license allowing certain transactions with Afghan government agencies.

At the same time, the general license prohibits cash transfers to the Taliban or the Haqqani Network, which are both subject to UN sanctions for “terrorist” operations.

On his account, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken said, “today’s action facilitates private companies and aid organizations working with Afghan governing institutions and paying customs, duties, fees, and taxes, including institutions that are headed by sanctioned individuals.”

Demonstrators in Kabul on February 12 protested US President Joe Biden's decision to release $7 billion in frozen Afghan funds to be shared between humanitarian assistance for Afghanistan and American victims of "terrorism", including 9/11 families, affirming that the money belongs to Afghans.
