New Delhi: Many countries in the world may fall their foot back after a disgraceful statement given by the Taliban. The Interim Government of Afghanistan (The Taliban) said that they will provide cash and land to the families of the Suicide bombers who attacked the US soldiers and Afghanistan soldiers.

The Spokesman of Interior Ministry Saeed Khosty on Twitter said that “The Taliban’s Acting Interior Minister Sirajuddin Haqqani offered the reward to dozens of family members of suicide bombers gathered at Kabul Hotel.”

According to Sirajuddin Haqqani, Suicide bombers are heroes of Islam and the country, he distributed 10 thousand Afghani ($112) and promised them to provide a land plot of land.

This event comes as the Taliban attempt to open diplomatic relations with other countries. The Taliban may focus on foreign aid to impoverish the Afghans. The UN has already predicted that the entire population will slide into poverty because of a severe economic crisis.

The Taliban cannot afford to alienate the US which froze billions of dollars in Afghan assets in US accounts in line with international sanctions protocols. International monetary organizations paused disbursements, equivalent to 75 percent of the previous government’s expenditure.

At the same time, the Taliban cannot afford to lose their hard-line base, especially in the wake of a growing IS threat in the country.
