This combo shows a file photo taken on October 12, 2018 of Canada's Prime Minister Justin Trudeau (L) speaking at the end of the 17th Francophone countries summit in the Armenian city of Yerevan; and an image of Abdul Salam Maftoon (R), an Afghan singer and contestant of the television music competition 'Afghan Star', speaking during an interview with AFP in Kabul on January 13, 2019.
