KABUL: Following US President Donald Trump’s declaration that he wants the old US facility returned, an Afghan Taliban government official declared on Sunday that a deal over Bagram Air facility was “not possible”.
Days after he suggested that the US retake the facility during a state visit to the UK, Trump threatened the nation on Saturday with an undisclosed punishment.
The 79-year-old leader stated on his Truth Social platform, “Bad things are going to happen if Afghanistan doesn’t return Bagram Airbase to the people who built it, the United States of America.”
