No, it will not be far less water for others there is plenty of water for everyone.
Uzbekistan cotton industry has been destroying Aral sea for past 50-60 years
Destroying? A report stated that the Aral Sea will never fully recover. It's essentially destroyed
The aral sea for cotton is the worst trade in human history
it was destroyed by soviets, NOT US.
Uzbekistan is stopping cotton production, the aral sea crisis is soviet unions fault
@@asirnewazkhan4172 : dear presenter, the waters of the mountains of Afghanistan, what you drink are not transit waters, but native water, our Afghan water from our mountains, in winter snow collects in the mountains and melts all summer,so neighbors drink Afghan water and use it in life,and we were busy with the war imposed on us, people have nothing to drink,our lands are drying up,there is no harvest, there is no water in the apartments of Kabul, there is nothing to flush the toilet with, there will be no more stupid withdrawal of all Afghan water, Afghanistan will no longer use its water from its mountains correctly.
... "urged the Taleban to be rational." Now that I call optimism.
"What are you gonna do? INVADE us?"
-The Taliban, probably.
@@jonlittle5032remember the clashes over the Fergana valley between TAJIKISTAN and Uzbekistan over water and farming rights? Taliban project tapping Amur-Darya river could lead to more conflict between impacted countries.
So it's ok for other Central Asian countries to use the water but not for AFG?
@@yasminea7149 No, Afg has right to depend its resources and rights. Isn’t it wonder why previous Afg regimes were so nice towards its rivals ?
Urging Israel to be rational. I call that optimism!
Instead of cotton, they should plant other things for their food security..
Or just grow poppies to decrease people's hunger.
they wont be growing cotton. this is 100% for opium. the regular farmers cant grow it because they would make real money and that would be a threat to the taliban.
only taliban can grow it.
@@The.Drunk-Koala Watch for your country
They are planning to grow wheat; this channel only provides enough information to be negtive
@@The.Drunk-Koalataliban outlawed poppies😂😂
Afghanistan has every right...for 50 years Afghanistan neighbours have exploited Afghanistan and taken advantage of the war.
dear presenter, the mountain waters of Afghanistan, which are drunk by Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Iran, Pakistan, are not transit waters, but native water, our Afghan water from our mountains, snow accumulates in the mountains in winter and melts all summer, so the neighbors drink Afghan water and use it in life, and we were busy that war has been imposed on us, people have nothing to drink, our lands are drying up, there is no harvest, there is no water in Kabul apartments, there is nothing to flush the toilet, there will no longer be a stupid withdrawal of all Afghan water, Afghanistan will no longer use its water from its mountains correctly.
Interesting this channel doesn’t cover Israel’s use of the River Jordan and how it limits the water for Palestinians.
cry me a river, lol
They own the world. You mention them you will be blocked or accused of anti semtisim.
Israel desalinates most of its water and provides more than the Jordan river's back to the region now. Sea of Gallillee is full for this reason after being crisis levels in the 00s
If the ground is already salty, irrigation will only make it worse.
no. you have no clue about agriculture.
@@SafaM-ne8zm Grew up on a farm in Kansas. Know what happens. Look at the farms in California that have turned to salt flats.
soil is not salty instead the underground water is salty. neighbouring country turkmenistan has also underground salty water but thier soil turned into gold once they started to use the water of the same river.
@@SafaM-ne8zm I was under the impression that salty underground water from too much irrigation is what eventually caused Mesopotamia to decline. The Nile river didn't have the same problem because of seasonal natural flooding bringing in nutrients (before they built hydro-dams in the upstream). But I have no idea how the soil/water is in Afghanistan.
No water for afghans no water for anyone ! Afghans water for afghans first !
I'm not fond of a extremist group dictating a country but isn't this report extremely biased. Let Afghanistan and Uzbekistan deal with shared resource like rest of the world...this looks like a targeted campaign against one group and it's sad these people have to go so low into portraying a extremist group in bad light. Like stop digging.
I mean isn't this is how western journalists usually is? Like they wouldn't say they hate you, but they will search every little bad things and exaggerates it. Also at the sometimes they always somehow forget to include the good impacts and the reason of such actions to make your country seem worse than it is.
What's even more interesting is afghanistan is actually rational in their approach as well. Amu daria river discharges 70 cubic km of water and afghan canal will only draw 10 cubic km.
If you divide 70 to 4 countries, each could legally take 15 cubic km and still leave something for the aral sea.
On top of that, afghan contribute around 7 cubic km to the river as well, so essentially they are taking little over what they give. Its fair in every sense.
If you divide the river by per capita, afghan could draw way more than 10 cubic km. So, actually they are fair to say the least.
Full support for canal and Greetings from Uzbekistan! ❤ As Brothers, we have to share the water! Besmillah Rahman Rahim!
I know that farmer doesn't set the agricultural strategy for the country. But cotton is notorious for being so water hungry.
It doesn't appear to make much sense to choose that for such an arid area. They can import cotton without issue, it's not a geopolitically sensitive fibre. Every continent makes it and every geopolitical side has a source. I'm sure such things are top concerns for the taliban.
There aren't many cash crops for them exactly due to dryness. Poppy? Cotton? Wheat? - they all ask for lots of watter.
Taliban knows it needs money making fast or their position (already weak) will be questioned.
Cotton is 10,5% of Uzbekistan export.
You assume they have a budget for imports. Taliban should be deported.
It's not about that, it's about shitty soil and shitty climate so not many crops can thrive there, cotton ia one of those that can or could, and on top of that one they can process on their own.
@@dannyboy-vtc5741 Thank you. That makes a lot of sense.
Even though I hate the taliban regime, Full support to them on any project that will help our people ❤️. I'm happy we Afghans finally have the power to do anything we want within our country, this project would've never happened if not for the taliban regime because all our governments have either been weak, unstable or very corrupt.
But taliban are terrorists. They dont even allow girls to go outside unaccompanied. How can u love such people? They are pests
By the way, the production of poppy (heroin) has fallen in Afghanistan since 2022 by 99%. State agencies to control the drugs of neighboring countries already express deep concern to the departure of such a large manufacturer from the market, because the excavation prices for heroin are growing. Consumes have to use cheap synthetic analogues.
The Taliban outlawed growing poppies. They thought would hurt the West for some reason. But it hasn't and no cares about their poppies😂😂
@@IcerinAlaska49They are helping their people though.
@@IcerinAlaska49Taliban Outlawed poppies because according to our religion, Growing poppies is a sin.
Didn't hear about hurting the West.
@@IcerinAlaska49 They didn't do it for the west or whatever reason you're thinking, they're literally doing it because there was and still is a drug epidemic. Its one of the major reasons the Afghan military fell to the Taliban so quickly.
With strong words we Afghans not only condemn this report but also we do condemn this evile Radio for spreading lies .

Question who can take a step to fight with Taliban and Afghans in central asia no one has dare to think of this ... War is far more different word
Mark my words
for decades other countries used the water that legally belong to Afghans for free, even selling it back!
it's a national canal for Afghanistan and not related to Taliban
Stop Colonialism
Afganistan free from usa . Now build nation
Asking the Taliban to be rational...😅 That's a good one.
All the taliban know is fight. They're ready to explode on the command of their leaders. But they'll soften up if no wars happen in the future.
main cultivation in those areas are wheat, sesame and pulses. so afghanistan is gonna be one of the biggest exporters of those.
Why dont american built it, while they were invading afghaniatan?
These river waters 💧 not only belong to central Asian countries. These water belong to for countries. The river water sources are in Afghanistan %50 water is from Afghanistan
Here to see how it's explained that MAKING A RIVER causes a drought. MAKE IT MAKE SENSE
once the canal project is ready for use the Afghan government should initiate modern methods of agriculture
Afghanistan is entitled to their portion of river water. It goes without saying that this project may immeasurably change the lives of people living anywhere near it.
We don't care, for us only the citizens of Afghanistan matter, the central Asian countries have been stealing our water for so long maybe their daddy russia can help them
*Who dare fight the Taliban...???*
Here's a different perspective nearly all of you most likely did not know before.
Jesus Christ the Messiah (peace be upon him) was taken to Heaven by Lord/God/TheCreator because some wanted him dead, so God saved him (be patient, continue reading, you will see ''the matrix'', upto you to escape it). (extensive detail in folder 3 in my playlists)
The word christ comes from the Greek word 'christos' meaning chosen/annointed (annointment is the act of chosing)
the word messiah comes from the Arabic/Hebrew word 'messiach', again meaning chosen.
Jesus did not speak Greek or Arabic or Hebrew, he spoke Aramaic.
John 14:28
“I go to the Father, for the Father is greater than I”
John 20:17
'‘I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.’”
John 5:30
"I cannot do anything on my own."
Mark 10:18
''Why do you call me good? No one is good, except God alone.''
(that ''father'' does not mean flesh and bone father, rather TheGuide/God,
worship TheCreator/TheGuide/TheGod and not the prophets, peace be upon them all)
So, Who chose Jesus?
TheCreator/TheGod/TheLord did.
To do what?
To convey that there is TheCreator/TheGod/TheLord and only ThatSupreme power should be worshipped and prayed to and NO idols/conjured up god/s by human kind,
be it a man, a spirit of a man, a sun, a star, a moon, a tree, an animal etc etc be worshipped in any way.
Anything that is worshipped besides TheGod is a god, that is false god, hence with a small ''g''.
There is one Creator, hence why TheGod, the only One deserving of worship.
What does Allah mean as a word?
It means TheCreator/TheGod/TheLord.
What does ''elaah'' mean as a word?
It means any idol or conjured up god or gods that are false and do not deserve worship of any kind, hence why Islam rejects all gods but TheGod/TheCreator/TheLord/Allah.
Why are all religions in opposition of Islam?
Because they have a god or many gods but TheGod that is worshipped in someway or another.
Have you ever read a Quran from start to finish?
That you can answer for your self.
(I recommend the Sahih International english translation, it's good).
Best wishes.
-------------------------------
.....btw.....
Jesus did preach to worship the OneGod/TheCreator and not anything else, and so did his followers, peace be upon them all.
This unsettled the Roman Empire because this idea of Monotheism went against their pagan beliefs where the emperor was both emperor and god. They persecuted the followers of Jesus and even attempted to kill Jesus, even a Roman Empire servant Saul of Tarsus was out to kill Jesus.
Saul never managed to meet Jesus in real life but after Jesus was taken up to Heaven Saul said he saw a dream and said he will now preach the teachings of Jesus. Saul of Tarsus is also known in todays christianity as Saint Paul, so todays christians are actually on the teaching of ''Saint'' Paul which brings in trinity and godhead figure of Jesus and rejects Monotheism.
-Jesus was commanded to preach Monotheism, which he did and early followers were Monotheistic (Islamic) believing people, which later changed with the Roman Empires paganism spreading
-Jesus was commanded to preach ONLY to the Israelites, which he did, but after him Saul of Tarsus aka ''saint Paul'' started to preach to the Gentiles, which is the foundation of todays christiandom.
-Jesus was commanded to rule for the circumsicion which he did, but it was taken out after he left
-Roman Empire in 325 AD held a council, with empire alligned 'scholars'' to decide and VOTE on whether Jesus was to be worshipped or not, they VOTED that Jesus be accepted as god (in aliagn with the pagan beliefs of the Roman traditions) and ever since the trinity became the 'christian way' (not what Jesus preached), and sinc that time the Church has chronicled how many times the ''Bible'' has been changed, verses removed and verses added to SUIT this altered idea of trinity!

Thank you Baloch bhai
When the ex-Soviet Central Asian states speak with the Taliban, what is the "lingua franca" commonly used by everyone?
Persian (Dari)?
No English
They have people on both sides that speak both languages to translate. They are border countries so they still have embassies on both sides to manage visas for people crossing the borders.
Dari is used only with tajiks. They have interpreters for the other nations, we have turkmen and Uzbek afghans who can speak both Dari and their turkic language so they can be the perfect interpreters.
Yeah. Now that the Americans are out, they should stay out. Don't meddle with their mouthpieces such as Radio Free Europe.
Why do you call it TALIBAN CANAL ?
Food security is more important for people of afghan
We need the water for food.
ideally the crops grown in the region wouldn't be cotton - which is demanding on water.
Carrots, beetroot, parsnips and other root crops are much better.
Hopeless country
Thanks to the US. Perhaps if the US return its money, then it'll be less hopeless.
We have lots of hope
40 years of invasion
And self proclaim educated people look down on them
no. you're hopeless. Afghanistan has a bright future inshaAllah after the US was defeated there. but only because you're a depressed and hopeless dude doesn't mean you should project your own misery on others
Afghanistan is not a hopeless country.
I'm no expert and I haven't even been there yet, but from my understanding,
It is a beautiful country with a beautiful culture, history and people, blemished by the Taliban and the wars of foreign powers.
It is a country that has persevered through over a century of abuse by the greatest world powers. To oversimplify, it was the British and the Russian Empires, using Afghanistan as a battlefield. (Why the Wakan Corridor exists, where Afghanistan separates what used to be the two empires) Then in 1979 the Afghan Soviet war, where the Afghan people were used as a proxy for the American CIA and the Pakistani ISI. The greatest powers in the world, killing and destroying with the best equipment available, for decades on end. And the Afghani people have persevered.
It is awful what the Taliban have done for women, freedom of expression, judicial process, the list goes on. But these radical ideals are not rooted in Afghanistan. Deobandi based ideals from a small sect in India, passed on to young students (Talib means student, Taliban is the plural form) in radical islamic schools called madrassas, mixed with the traditional conservatism of Pashtun tribal ideals, and this resulted in a new, coordinated movement that offered the Afghani people a solution to the war and political unrest. They appeared to be pure, incorruptible, honest, and many warlords and factions peacefully surrendered and joined. After emerging in 1994, they had Kabul by 1996 and the north by 98. The last hold out was in the Panjshir Valley, north east of Kabul, where Ahmad Shah Massoud and the Northern alliance held out. Ahmad Shah Massoud, a leader and hero of Afghanistan from early on in the Soviet war, wanted peace, was moderate, treated people with kindness, loved his country, " The Lion of the Panjshir",as he was known, was tragically killed by Al Queda operatives posing as Belgian journalists in a suicide bombing on September 9th 2001, 2 days before 9/11. May he rest in peace.
Afghanistan has hit a rough patch in its history and generations of people have had to struggle through it. But it will change, everything changes. And it will be better. The world will open up to Afghanistan and Afghanistan to the world. And I hope that time comes soon. I, like millions of others in Afghanistan and around the world, will continue to have hope.
Although good in theory, an unlined canal is a huge waste of water. Doubt the canal slopes are stable so a maintenance nightmare. Hopefully the lives of the local population will be improved.
for how long and at what cost?
Does the soil not become waterlogged at some point even if it is unlined?
That farmer may want to grow cotton. But that does not mean that is the Taliban's plan or that that river will be enough for that. Realistically they need water to grow food, they are not going to eat cotton.
They had their right over the water
Of course nobody expects Radio Liberty to broadcast the truth. The Amu Darya does not flow from Tajikistan only; the main tributary of the Amu River is the Kockcha River, which originates from Afghanistan/Badakhshan province. Only 45% of the water flows from the Tajik side of the Pamirs; the rest of the water flows from the Wakhan, Koockcha, and other tributaries from inside Afghanistan. Stop spreading lies. Afghanistan will use less than 10% of its annual portion of water from Amu River for the Qosh Tapa canal
Dude you are truly uneducated! Just google and see how many rivers from Tajikistan goes to Amu Darya!
May God help them and guide them
Amen❤ thanks for the good wishes. Love from Afghanistan
Thank you RFE for not mentioning “climate change” in the video, à la the BBC.
The Taliban themselves talk about climate change as one of the main reasons this project must succeed. So. There is that. They are more grounded in reality than you.
Don't forget this is European channel
Wanting to grow watermelons in a desert is like growing orchids in Antarctica.

Project will end 2025 ..lo its going full fast 24 shift
I feel some people are raising invalid points. Contrary to popular belief, desert doesn't mean infertile. It means dry. Lots of desert has great top soil. Much of California is supposed to be desert but has been converted into the food basket of the country. Also, you can fix salinity problems. Just not when you don't do any maintenance for centuries. Near where I live was reclaimed from the sea and it's green everywhere.
Yet another fight over water😢
Nobody would dare fighting us and we have every right to use the water of the river
@@mastermaseeh5949These countries will act if you threaten their water supply. Its foolish to think that they wouldn't.
They would be wise to start off with local species that are adapted to that climate and crops that have lower irrigation needs. They can then start building the soil from there. I thought we had problems in the West but it seems human stupidity knows no bounds
i would have expected the west to not have problems, our people are not even properly educated and this project is entirely built by the afghan people. wishing it does benefit us to some degree

Why not desalinate? Is this part of China's BMI plans?
Desalination is really expensive and polluting. Not viable
Afghanistan is landlocked. Countries with access to the sea can desalinate.

What could possibly go wrong??
Nothing. Even if everything turns to shit we'll still have water in the country, can't be absolutely useless.
Well it's already gone bad, it's been almost a year since the canal broke and spilled its water into a desert.
@@fredaves268 It didnt break, it was broken on purpose according to afghan engineers
Hypocrisy of the west
The good project.
They better plant crops like dates plantation, species of cactus related trees and mostly focus on trees like mango , papaya etc, this are not water hungry and they maintain moist in the air.
Sounds like a Asian problem to me.

The Groundwater is Salty? How much Lithium does it contain?

It is not a desert, but the winds brought the sand from the mountains, it is thirty centimeters below the soil where it is possible to cultivate, and currently the farmers there have started practical work on thousands of acres of cultivated land.

How is taliban differ to ISIS?
@@nataliiateteruk585 taliban are entirely composed of our own Afghan people. They want peace for Afghanistan under sharia law.

@@nataliiateteruk585they are good because they u are ass out of the country , so now keeps stay out of Afghanistan business
@@nataliiateteruk585 The Taliban is a strict regime, very little freedom for both men and women but is far limited for women. I would say the Taliban might benefit us in a sense of developing the country because they are not very corrupt apart from extreme nepotism. for example comparing the Taliban to the previous regime where in addition to nepotism they would steal all the American dollars instead of building the country with it, the Taliban don't steal and are actually spending every bit on building the country or so it seems. they did build some roads, cleared drug addicts and gangsters and repaired the most important tunnel in the country. Anyways i would be very happy with the Taliban in under two conditions: remove nepotism entirely and women be allowed to work, study in any or most fields. The ISIS is a terrorist group, the Taliban are illiterate Afghans who got tired of all the wars and decided to bring their version of government to Afghanistan, they are very much indoctrinated with religion hence why their government is very religious and strict. The ISIS are even more radical than the Taliban, they want to unite all the Muslim majority countries but they do not accept the Shia sect to be real Muslims. so if the ISIS were to take power in Afghanistan they would massacre the 15% of people who are Shias right away. however their goals are unrealistic and Afghans don't support them, they are mostly operating in Pakistan and Tajikistan now. The Taliban are far better than ISIS, and far better than what the average western person would think of them, but this doesn't mean they are good or perfect. Hopefully Afghanistan's government can become similar to what Iran has right now, we are not as secular as the Iranian people so we wouldn't have many problems with it.

Irrigation like that could lead to salinization of soil. Ancient Sumerian irrigation caused a salt build-up in water and soils that inhibited food production and contributed to the decline of Sumerian civilization. There are no fertile farmland left at Iraq nowadays.

okay now taliban is going ahead other nations have concerns, so they are happy to see afghans being impoverished rather than working with the afghans
Watermelons. Now there’s a nutrient dense food. Stores well. Easy to transport. 😮 oh, and cotton. Water intensive crops are always good to grow on saline soils with scarce water. Not to mention the pesticide and herbicide load in the soil and their bodies. Sounds like a solid plan. As long as the water doesn’t evaporate before it gets half way.
Water wars on the horizon in Central Asia; possibly also in the east and west. Peoples are going to have to learn to talk.
We dont talk, if any problems we will show the central asian nations the hard way to not mess with afghans
It could leave neighbours High and Dry😅
With cement to create good canals and irrigation it should be great and not waste heap's as long as they share
We are too poor for cement, this will work, the ground is not sand entirely but only the top layer is. the big desert is in the south of our country
Sure glad that the farmers are going to get more water for their opium fields and ephedra/meth facilities.
The cultivation of narcotics, the sale of narcotics, and the purchase of narcotics have been stopped by the decree of Amirul Momineen for two years, not even an acre of land has been cultivated with narcotics, and according to the United Nations, ninety-five percent of narcotics have been destroyed in Afghanistan, before the Taliban. There were drug addicts in every alley and back alley, and there were drug dealers, but now you can't find an addict on the road, everyone deserves treatment and drug dealers are sentenced to 10 or 20 years in prison, so don't write nonsense, this is the system of the Afghans, not of the Afghans. The occupiers of America are idolaters
Почему афганцы говорят на узбекском языке?
Northern Afghanistan is full of Uzbek afghans. Around 10 percent of the population is Uzbek.
good luck
Growing some crops in dessert is challenging
Its not a desert like fully sand, its just a baren land. it will work hopefully
You do not mention the fact that the canal has ruptured and has been pouring its waters into a desert area for months. Satellite photos make it possible to follow the progression of the flood.
The canal is not even connected to the amo darya yet, the taliban say the rupture is intentional for some reason.
@@mastermaseeh5949 Afghan engineers say quite the opposite. The rupture is accidental and the Taliban seek to conceal this catastrophe by saying that it was intentional.
@@fredaves268 can you share the source with us, thank you.
@@mastermaseeh5949 Unfortunately, it's my wife who works with Afghan engineers, they're the ones who warned him about the story almost a year ago. So since this period we have been watching the evolution of the water table in the desert via the NASA site (EOSDIS Worldview). It makes them laugh a little that the Taliban say it was planned. I obviously cannot name them or indicate where they work.
Who’s paying for this?
2:50 in short we dont have any proof but we want the work to slow down, so that we can fabricate a narrative agains the project.

Good to see them help the people but hopefully they build a dam so war don't break out cuz of to much water take.
That way they can pressure the other countries on other deals... Honestly smart
Good but these countries used our capacity waters in free for almost 50 years when Afghanistan was battle field so now we have full rights to use our resources in which can be used for the benefit of our people
Meanwhile our goverment making dams in afghanistan 😂😂😂😂 well thats good 🇮🇳🇦🇫
