Taliban Opposed to Turkey's Running of Airport Security

International Airport, with a front man of the group saying that they are against the presence of any foreign troops after the given deadline for their withdrawal from Afghanistan.

...Turkey's version of Mohammed Morsi but they voted him back in so they deserve him. It's a sin, a shame, and a felony to insult the president of Turkey.

or Turkey or any other country, it will not be acceptable both for the people of Afghanistan and for the Taliban," former Taliban commander Sayed Akbar Agha said.

Erdogan announced the agreement on July 9.

"Our defense minister met with the US defense secretary, and we had a meeting with US and NATO to discuss the future of the Hamid Karzai International Airport," Erdogan said on July 9. "We decided on what we accept in this respect and which conditions we don’t agree upon."

The Afghan government welcomed the move. The Civil Aviation Authority on Sunday said that a new defense system has been activated at Hamid Karzai International Airport.

"We welcome friendly countries for their cooperation in strengthening the capacity and management of the control of airports," Defense Ministry’s front man Rohullah Ahmadzai said.

The new defense system at the Kabul airport has been established with the help of Afghanistan’s allies, a government front man said.

"Right now, our foreign allies are cooperating with us so that we can find the capacity to use the weapon (defense system)," said Gen. Ajmal Shinwari, a front man for the government forces.

Turkey has been helping in Hamid Karzai Airport’s security since 2013, officials said.

"It creates some type of concern--why are they trying to secure their route? For fleeing? On the other hand, it is a type of hope as it gives a feeling of the international community’s presence," said retired general Zahir Azimi.
