Thousands of protesters took to the streets in Kabul, Balkh, Jalalabad, and other major cities in protest against Joe Biden’s decision.

Earlier, U.S. President Joe Biden signed an order stating that frozen funds belonging to the Afghan bank would be distributed in two directions. One part of the funds is intended for the families of the victims of the September 11, 2001 attacks, while the other is for supporting the Afghan population.

Protesters in Afghanistan are unhappy that President Joe Biden will allocate $3.5 billion as compensation for the families of the victims of the September 11, 2001 attacks. In photos and videos, protesters claim that the U.S. administration’s decision is a declaration of hostility towards the Afghan people.

“America, along with its allies, must pay for the killing of thousands of Afghans and the destruction of Afghanistan,” reads the protesters’ slogan.

The U.S. administration’s decision has also been condemned by other politicians.

As reported by the BBC, former Afghan President Hamid Karzai stated to the media that the Afghan people have become “victims of terrorism.” “We tell the American people and the whole world, how can you blame a poor people and take their money?”

A representative of the Chinese Foreign Ministry wrote on their Twitter page that “the richest country in the world is robbing the poorest.”

On the other hand, the Islamic Society of Afghanistan stated that it “does not agree with the decision to unfreeze Afghan accounts during the Taliban government and wishes that these funds be transferred to a recognized government.”
