WASHINGTN (Pajhwok): The United States has said that delisting of Gulbuddin Hekmatyar, head of the Hizb-i-Islami Afghanistan (HIA) from the UN sanctions did not mean that the US would lift its sanctions on him automatically, an official said on Friday.
At the same time, the United States supported Afghan Government’s request to delist Hekmatyar from United Nations sanctions.
“Although we supported the Afghan government’s request to delist Gulbuddin Hekmatyar from UN sanctions, delisting from UN sanctions does not automatically mean delisting from U . . .
