Political analysts said that if the report is based on the realities on the ground, it can help with solving some current challenges in Afghanistan.
UN Special Coordinator for Afghanistan, Feridun Sinirlioğlu, on Tuesday presented his report of an assessment of Afghanistan to the United Nations Security Council (UNSC).
Switzerland at the United Nations wrote on X that the UN Security Council held a private meeting on the independent assessment on Afghanistan. “Special Coordinator Feridun Sinirlioğlu briefed the UNSC.”
“The inclusion and active participation of women and girls in all aspects of life is an essential condition for the country’s future,” Switzerland at the UN said.
Official account of the Permanent Mission of Malta to the UN said on its X account that it attended a “private meeting” to discuss the independent assessment review to address current challenges faced by Afghanistan.
“We highlighted several concerns, including the various violations of the human rights of women and girls,” Malta said.
The Islamic Emirate’s spokesman, Zabiullah Mujahid, said that the situation in Afghanistan has positively changed and that it should be supported.
“We believe that the situation in Afghanistan is extraordinarily positive, and this situation should be admired. It should be encouraged, so the situation becomes better, not for the damages against security, development and achievements to be diminished,” he said.
Political analysts said that if the report is based on the realities on the ground, it can help with solving some current challenges in Afghanistan.
“The concerns are useless. Instead of giving slogans, it is better that the Islamic Emirate sit face-to-face and talk about the various issues and at least give an opportunity to the women of Afghanistan and the Islamic Emirate should understand it,” said Abdul Jabar Akbari, a political analyst.
“The remarks by Sinirlioğlu and the report that he provided to the UN, can get us out of many problems if the Islamic Emirate pays practical and sincere attention to it,” said Abdul Shokor Dadras, a political analyst.
Earlier, in a document accessed by TOLOnews, the Islamic Emirate articulated its stance towards the assessment of the situation of Afghanistan conducted by a UN team, saying that it welcomes recommendations that support the strengthening of the national economy of the country and opening of the pathway to the recognition of the “current government” and “encourages regional connectivity and transit via Afghanistan.”
