Roza Otunbayeva, head of the United Nations Assistance Mission in Afghanistan (UNAMA), and Sima Bahous, the UN Women Executive Director, will deliver speeches on Afghanistan at this meeting.
The head of UNAMA will present a quarterly report on the situation in Afghanistan to the members of the Security Council.
According to a report by the Security Council, consultations on Afghanistan will also take place at the end of the meeting.
The UN Security Council said, “Wednesday (18 September), there will be an open briefing, followed by closed consultations, on Afghanistan. Roza Otunbayeva, the Special Representative and Head of the UN Assistance Mission in Afghanistan (UNAMA), and Sima Sami Bahous, the UN Women Executive Director, will brief attendees.”
The report also mentioned that a civil society activist will also speak about Afghanistan at this meeting.
Yousuf Amin Zazai is a political analyst. He stated that this meeting is valuable for the country’s future in the world. He emphasized that prioritizing the voice of the Afghan people should form the basis of these discussions.
The Islamic Emirate has not yet commented on this. However, it has always urged the United Nations Assistance Mission in Afghanistan to reflect the realities in its reports.
Significance of Holding the UN Security Council’s Quarterly Meetings on Afghanistan
Saleem Paigir is another political analyst. He explained that the Security Council holds these meetings every three months. The purpose of these meetings is to review Afghanistan’s political, economic, and social situation. The Security Council also reports to the world during these meetings. Unfortunately, he noted, they have not benefited the people of Afghanistan so far.
Earlier, the United Nations Assistance Mission in Afghanistan had criticized the human rights situation in Afghanistan in its latest report, a matter that the Islamic Emirate called baseless.
