The Kabul Times, established in 1962, was the first English language printed newspaper in Afghanistan.
Following the 1978 coup, the Kabul Times was renamed New Kabul Times, and began to print Communist rhetoric that was reminiscent of days during the Cold War and was highly confrontative to the Western culture.
As of 2002, the Kabul Times is a daily paper that is in circulation in Afghanistan.
Famous quotes containing the word times:
“He felt that it would be dull times in Dublin, when they should have no usurping government to abuse, no Saxon Parliament to upbraid, no English laws to ridicule, and no Established Church to curse.”
—Anthony Trollope (1815–1882)
