European Union: We Will Continue to Support the People of Afghanistan

The European Union has stated that it will continue to support the people of Afghanistan in various sectors, including education, health, economic development, and the private sector. This position comes after the visit of several senior EU officials to Kabul.

Continued EU Support for Afghans

The European Union Mission in Afghanistan announced through a statement on the social media platform X (formerly Twitter) that the EU and its partners will continue to be active in sectors such as education, health, economic development, and private sector support in Afghanistan.

Visit of Senior EU Officials to Kabul

The statement also referred to the recent visit of several senior EU officials to Kabul, though no further details regarding the objectives of the visit were provided. However, this visit highlights the EU’s intention to maintain engagement with Afghanistan and continue its humanitarian and development activities in the country.

Limited Presence of Foreign Entities in Afghanistan

Following the Taliban’s return to power in Afghanistan in August 2021, many foreign organizations and entities left the country. However, the European Union Mission is one of the few international entities that continues its operations in Afghanistan.

The Future of International Support

Despite the existing challenges, the EU has emphasized that it will not cease its support for the people of Afghanistan. This could provide hope for Afghans who rely on international assistance in various fields.

This comes at a time when the humanitarian and economic situation in Afghanistan remains critical, and the need for international support is more urgent than ever.
