One year after the war against Afghanistan, although the Taliban regime is over, the country is still under the control of the warlords, with a new regime that nobody has elected. The situation for women is no better than before, children have just as little access to education as in the past, not to mention the tremendous poverty of most of the inhabitants of this country, which is still aggravated by the death and destruction sown by Western planes.
The United States, with the support of European Member States, has spent vast sums on flooding the country with bombs. There is no question, however, of the world powers spending even a fraction of these sums on improving the life of the people.
The various resolutions themselves reflect a rose-tinted view of the disastrous situation in Afghanistan. As always, however, we are content to welcome, request and invite. We did not join in with this ineffective whimpering, when, a year ago, most of the Members making these noises today supported the brutal policy of the world powers."@en1
