KABUL, 06 April 2022, (TON): The United Nations Development Program in Afghanistan has expressed concern over the poor economic situation of the Afghan people, saying that millions of people in the country are facing economic challenges.

The head of the UNDP in Afghanistan said “he does not consider humanitarian aid to Afghanistan sufficient and emphasizes that without economic development, Afghanistan will not be stable.”

Abdallah Al Dardari, UNDP resident representative in Afghanistan said “humanitarian operations, although very important, are not sufficient and we need to focus on people’s livelihoods, and the reason why we need to focus on people’s livelihoods is, simply, we have millions of people today who are on the verge of economic collapse in addition to the millions of who are already suffering from the humanitarian situation and challenges..”

The head of the UNDP in Afghanistan said that the organization is working to meet the living needs of the people.

World Food Program announced the continuation of humanitarian aid to Afghanistan.
