PACE calls for coordinated European response to Afghan developments

Paris, Sep 30 (UNI/SPUTNIK) The Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe (PACE) adopted a resolution on Thursday addressing the implications of the situation in Afghanistan for Europe and the region, and calling for a coordinated response, including humanitarian assistance.
The resolution was adopted in a 74-14 vote with 12 abstentions at an urgent debate on Afghanistan during the fall session in Strasbourg.
"The Parliamentary Assembly expresses its deepest concern at the situation in Afghanistan following the military withdrawal of the United States of America and its NATO allies and partners and the Taliban's return to power, which has opened a phase of political uncertainties in which violence continues and the potential for civil war is not excluded. This state of affairs leads to heightened risks for peace, stability and security in Afghanistan, the region and beyond," PACE stated in its resolution.
