Moscow does not rule out opening more consulates in Afghanistan in the future, Russian Ambassador to Kabul Dmitry Zhirnov said in an interview with TASS, APA reports.
"So far, there is no need for this but nothing can be ruled out in the future. Russia and Afghanistan established diplomatic relations in 1919; back then, apart from the embassy in Kabul and a consulate in Mazar-i-Sharif, we also opened consulates in Herat and Maymana, and planned to open a consulate in Jalalabad," he said in response to a question.
