On December 13th, local time, the United Nations Security Council unanimously adopted resolution 2763, extending the authorization of the Monitoring Team of the 1988 Sanctions Committee (Taliban Sanctions Committee) for 14 months. The Chinese representative expressed the hope that the team would continue to actively perform its duties as authorized by the resolution, provide strong support for the work of the Committee, support the monitoring team to strengthen contacts with the Afghan interim government, and look forward to the team's early visit to Afghanistan. Geng Shuang, Deputy Permanent Representative of China to the United Nations, said in his explanatory speech after the adoption of the resolution that the resolution reaffirmed that Afghan territory cannot be used to support terrorism or threaten the security of other countries. China urges the Afghan authorities to implement the requirements of the resolution, strengthen anti-terrorism actions and resolutely crack down on all terrorist forces, including the Islamic State, Al Qaeda and the East Iraqi Movement (ETIM/TIP). Geng Shuang said that the resolution reaffirmed the need to help Afghanistan meet economic and humanitarian challenges, restore the banking and financial system, and use the assets of the Afghan central bank to benefit the Afghan people. China urges the countries concerned to immediately and unconditionally unfreeze and fully return Afghanistan's overseas assets, stop imposing illegal unilateral sanctions on Afghanistan and support Afghanistan's efforts to improve people's livelihood. Geng Shuang emphasized that the resolution reaffirmed support for inclusive governance in Afghanistan and called for the protection of the basic rights of Afghan women and ethnic minorities. China urges the Afghan authorities to earnestly implement the requirements of the Security Council resolutions, but at the same time, it would like to point out that the 1988 sanctions mechanism is a compulsory measure to counter terrorism, and it is not an appropriate solution to human rights issues. Geng Shuang said that the resolution reaffirmed the necessity of reviewing the 1988 sanctions regime and stressed that the Security Council sanctions should help promote Afghan peace and stability. The Taliban has been in power for more than three years, the situation in Afghanistan is generally stable, and contacts between the outside world and the Afghan authorities are gradually expanding. China once again calls for timely adjustment of the sanctions mechanism according to the development and changes of the situation. As a first step, the Security Council should restore the blanket exemption from the travel ban for relevant personnel of the Afghan interim government as soon as possible, so as to create conditions and facilitate the international community to strengthen contacts and exchanges with Afghanistan.
