New York, MINA – Parvathaneni Harish, India’s Permanent Representative to the United Nations, told a recent UN Security Council meeting that the political landscape in Afghanistan has changed significantly, making it necessary to reassess the current UN sanctions regime.
Quoted from Ariana News on Tuesday, Harish said the existing punitive measures have lost their effectiveness and urged the international community to adopt a new approach toward engagement with Afghanistan.
The Indian envoy also condemned Pakistan’s airstrikes inside Afghanistan, citing findings by the United Nations Assistance Mission in Afghanistan (UNAMA) that linked the attacks to significant civilian casualties.
He further accused Islamabad of imposing trade and transit restrictions on Afghanistan and called for those measures to be lifted. []
