Dec 31, (Afghanistan Women’s News Agency) – A group of women associated with the Purple Saturdays movement engaged in a peaceful protest gathering against the recent resolution of the United Nations Security Council about the appointment of a special representative for Afghanistan affairs. The likelihood of success for the new special representative is scant. Instead, punitive measures should be evaluated against this group.
The Purple Saturdays movement on Sunday, December 31, in a protest gathering at a close place, issued a statement to the United Nations urging them to refrain from appeasing the Taliban. The global community and the United Nations should respect the desires of the people of Afghanistan, the UN Charter, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, and other international documents, and abstain from engaging, reconciling, and paying tribute to the Taliban group, most of whose leaders are included in the United Nations blacklist.
These protesting women have asked the international community and the United Nations not to make decisions about Afghanistan in the absence of the representatives of the Afghan people, especially the protesting women inside the country.
Protesting women urge the UN to involve Afghan women representatives in decision-making about Afghanistan. These protesting women have asked the international community and the United Nations not to make decisions about Afghanistan in the absence of the representatives of the Afghan people, especially the protesting women from inside the country.
The members of this protest movement seek to address the current crisis in Afghanistan through the implementation of transparent elections and a transition from a centralized to a decentralized system.
