Georgian Foreign Ministry (MFA), in coordination with the Prime Minister’s Office, is actively working to withdraw Georgian citizens from Afghanistan, MFA reported on Sunday.
“Our citizens serving as private contractors in Afghanistan contacted Foreign Ministry of Georgia for help,” MFA noted.
“We contacted partner countries and the employer company. We are actively communicating with Ukraine to evacuate several Georgian citizens via aircraft for which Georgian side is thankful for Ukrainian Foreign Ministry,” MFA stated.
The Taliban has entered Kabul, the capital of Afghanistan earlier today. They are claiming to have taken over the presidential palace in Kabul. President Ghani has already left the country, foreign media outlets wrote.
