Afghanistan International: A source from the National Resistance Front of Afghanistan (NRF) told Afghanistan International that the United States rejected a visa request from Ahmad Massoud, the leader of the front, to appease the Taliban. Meanwhile, Massoud stated in a recent interview that the United States opposes his presence in the country. On Tuesday, July 16, in an interview with Shawn Ryan on YouTube, Massoud mentioned that he believes the US government does not want him to go to the US, stating that he had not observed any indication from them to invite him there and listen to his words. Ryan, who published the interview with Massoud on his YouTube channel, said that the US placed the NRF leader on its blacklist to prevent his travel to the country. Massoud claimed that the Taliban are building jihadist madrassas with US money. Click here to read more (external link).
