Frozen Afghan assets will go to pay compensation to the families of the victims of the Terrorist attack on September 11, transfers the New York Times.
It is noted that in December 2011, the American court satisfied the corresponding claim and obliged the defendants (among them Al-Qaida and Taliban) to pay 150 families of those killed $ 7 billion. Then this decision seemed symbolic, but as the edition notes Now the situation has changed: if the Taliban claim to Afghan assets, they must meet the requirements for compensation.
It is argued that this issue is now actively worked out in the administration of Byyden, but there is a problem: to appeal to recover the Taliban assets, they must be recognized by the legal government of the country.
