lpv:translated text	"The content of the report on budgetary control of EU funds in Afghanistan once again shows that interventionism by the West in these regions has changed nothing. Our presence only prolongs the war and the resulting suffering, rather than eliminating them. To talk of democracy and the equality of the sexes in a country where customs sometimes border on barbarism, is typical of the blissful ignorance of ultra-Europeans who still prefer to get involved in international issues rather than dealing with Europe’s problems. The ethnic groups in Afghanistan, where wars have raged for centuries, will never accept any foreign occupation, no matter how ‘humanitarian’. It only strengthens the positions of the Taliban and other extremist factions, rather than enabling a strong and capable legitimate power to emerge and stabilise the country. Europeans must withdraw as quickly as possible from the Afghan wasps’ nest."@en1
