Sadaqat, a shopkeeper in Kabul, Afghanistan, told CGTN Global Stringer about the difficulties his business has endured since the new government took office. Due to the freezing of Afghan central bank's assets by the United States, shopkeepers and customers cannot withdraw money from the bank and often do not have cash. As a result, shopkeepers struggle to sell goods, and people find it difficult to buy things. However, Sadaqat hopes that this situation will not last long.
