Haqqani meets with EU delegation in Kabul

Acting Minister of Interior Sirajuddin Haqqani met with Raffaella Iodice, the head of the EU delegation in Afghanistan this week and said Afghanistan needs to be given its ‘membership’ in international organizations.

“The Afghan government should get its membership in important international organizations, so that the Afghans will have their real representatives there which will also help the issues to be solved easily,” Haqqani said at the meeting.

Iodice meanwhile noted the improved security in Afghanistan and spoke of assistance by the EU to earthquake-affected people in Herat province and Afghan refugees returning to the country.

Haqqani also said that after several decades of instability and chaos, Afghanistan is rapidly moving towards economic and political stability.
