It added, Zamir Kabulov also stressed that "the Russian leadership will make a decision on recognizing the regime of the Taliban movement, depending on how responsibly they will govern the country."

We will watch closely how responsibly they will govern the country in the near future. Following these results, the Russian leadership will make the necessary conclusions."
