Afghanistan to present National Development Strategy
font size    

The post-war Afghanistan would present its National Development Strategy at the next donors' conference in London, Afghan Foreign Minister said Sunday.

"Work on the chalking out of a National Development Strategy, which is designed to be presented at donors' conference in London is going on," Abdullah Abdullah told journalists at a joint press conference with the special envoy of UN secretary General to Afghanistan Jean Arnault.

The two-day London conference, which is going to open on Jan. 31, is the third of its kind since the collapse of Taliban and induction of new government in the post-war nation over the past four years.

International community has pledged more than 12 billion US dollars in the first and second conferences of donors' nations held in Tokyo and Berlin respectively in 2002 and 2004.

The situation in Afghanistan especially the reconstruction is going to be reviewed by over 60 countries and international organizations attended the London conference.

"The international community would renew its commitment for another five years in assisting Afghanistan to rebuild itself in all necessary fields including development, security and good governance. We are hopeful to achieve the goal," Abdullah added.

Speaking at the press briefing, the UN special envoy to Afghanistan welcomed the coming London conference and called for more international support to Afghanistan.

"The plan to hold the London conference shows that, reassuringly, the international community has chosen another course of action to continue its high-level, multifaceted engagement with Afghanistan," Jean Arnault stressed.
