EU officials stated that Afghanistan is facing a severe humanitarian and socio-economic crisis
At the time of this virtual summit, the United Nations urged global leaders to invest billions of dollars in the Afghan economy.
US President Joseph Biden emphasized that assistance should be provided to Afghanistan through independent international organizations, rather than directly providing assistance to the Taliban in charge of Afghanistan.
Up to now, the estimated aid funds have reached millions of dollars, and these funds only provide emergency food and medicine for Afghanistan.
For the poor, the top priority is to avoid hunger
The G20 members’ aid commitments to Afghanistan include that the European Union will provide Afghanistan and Afghanistan’s neighboring countries with a package of aid worth about 1 billion euros. In a statement, Von der Lein pointed out that the EU must do everything possible to avoid a major humanitarian crisis and socio-economic collapse in Afghanistan. The statement stated that hundreds of thousands of Afghans are in danger, and humanitarian assistance alone is not enough to avoid famine and major humanitarian crises. To this end, on the basis of humanitarian assistance, the EU will also provide targeted assistance in the field of basic services.
