MAZAR-I-SHARIF (Pajhwok): As its trade with Central Asia states has been on the rise, Afghanistan have declined by 80 percent, say traders in northern Balkh province.

Due to commerce and transit issues between Afghanistan and Pakistan, businesspeople in the province say imports through the Torkham port have precipitously fallen.

Meanwhile, officials of the customs department say their revenue in 2017 had increased by 16 percent over last year, thanks to increased imports via Hairatan port from Central Asia.
