The smuggling of carpet from Afghanistan has increased as per the Afghan Ministry of Economy.
The ministry said in a statement today that carpet smuggling from Afghanistan overseas has grown because of the lack of domestic markets and export challenges.
Also, Afghan carpet weavers, stated that lack of loans, lack of access to the market, lack of cooperation of the government in the provision of visas for businessmen and the lack of land are among the other challenges in this regard.
But Mohammad Ismail Rahimi, the deputy Minister of Economy, has promised to address these challenges through the Economy Committee of the Council of Ministers or the High Economic Council.
