"Hanafi met in his office with a joint delegation of Afghan and Russian investors. At this meeting, oil and gas production, the establishment of specialized processing plants, compressed natural gas and liquefied natural gas production systems, as well as the establishment of a cement production facility were discussed in detail," the radicals' spokesman wrote on his Twitter page.
