United Nation, June 21: India has asked the UN member states to find the source from where the “anti-government elements” in Afghanistan were getting weapons, training and funds to fight one of the biggest collective military forces in the world.
“We see a growing tendency of treating violence in Afghanistan as a routine occurrence. Brutalities by terrorist and criminal networks are ignored under the label of anti- government elements or a consequence of a civil and political conflict. In doing so, we appear to be failing in asking some crucial questions,” India’s Permanent Representative to the UN Ambassador Syed Akbaruddin said yesterday.
Akbaruddin, speaking at a Security Council debate on Afghanistan, questioned where are these anti-government elements were getting their weapons, explosives, training and funding from.
“Where do they find safe havens and sanctuaries? How is it that these elements have stood up against one of the biggest collective military efforts in the world? How is it that these elements collaborate with the world’s most dreadful terrorists in killing and brutalising the Afghans?,” he asked.
