Us Embassy In Afghanistan Shut

The Afghan embassy in Washington, under severe financial pressure and cut off from the new Taliban government in Kabul, will close down in the coming week, a senior State Department official confirmed Saturday.

When the Taliban took over Afghanistan the first time in 1996, China refused to recognize their rule and left its embassy shut for years. This time around, Beijing has been among the first to embrace the Islamist terrorists next door.

The US Embassy in Afghanistan has closed following deadly insurgent attacks on a German Consulate and an American military base.
