"We would highlight the rapporteur’s criticisms of oversight and accountability relating to the management of funds allocated by the EU. The report proposes measures intended to improve this situation, such as diversifying aid ‘in order to address individual needs through the appropriate funding channel’ and ‘introducing direct budget support in Afghanistan’; also that ‘civil society and parliamentarians must be involved throughout every stage of implementation, monitoring and the evaluation of results’ and that measures should be taken to combat corruption.
The fundamental issue is that this report does not, as it should have done, condemn the occupation of Afghanistan. The rapporteur even mentions ‘that a withdrawal of troops could have a negative effect on the economy of Afghanistan’. We would reemphasise our opposition to the military occupation of Afghanistan. We argue that the only path to peace in that region will necessarily involve the immediate withdrawal of all occupying troops, and respect for Afghanistan’s independence and sovereignty."@en1
