Abstract

The State of Afghanistan has been experiencing economic and political instability for many years. The weak exchange rate, high unemployment, increased emigration of the active working population, problems in the banking and financial system, and many others have always been on the agenda of both the Afghan statesmen themselves and the entire interested world community. At the moment, Afghanistan is going through a new time in its difficult history, the government has changed and even greater instability and uncertainty is observed in the country. This article examines the economic consequences of this change of power and what actions need to be taken to reduce the negative impact of this process.
