Residents of Afghanistan to Work in Chechnya and Dagestan

Afghan workers will receive work permits in Chechnya, Dagestan and Krasnodar Krai. This was announced at the St. Petersburg Economic Forum by the head of the Russian Business Center in Afghanistan, Rustam Khabibullin.

According to him, the first 100 Afghan workers are already working at construction sites in Moscow, St. Petersburg and Tatarstan.

“We are expecting work permits for them from Chechnya, Dagestan and Krasnodar Krai. We will also soon send a group of construction specialists from Afghanistan to the liberated Russian territories – the DPR and LPR. They will be engaged in clearing the territory and restoring the infrastructure. There is a great need for Afghan specialists in Russia,” Khabibullin shared his plans.
