Natural resources in Afghanistan
It should be noted that Afghanistan has a number of mineral worth of billions of dollars in its different parts, but these natural resource remained untapped due to decades-old violence in the country. However, as Afghanistan has started witnessing some sort of peace and stability after Taliban came in power in August 2021, there are hopes that these natural riches would be utilised in the best interest of the nation.
