(ANSA) - GENEVA, SEPTEMBER 13 - The Taliban have guaranteed safe access to aid and freedom of movement to the UN for humanitarian workers operating in Afghanistan. This was stated by the UN deputy secretary for humanitarian affairs, Martin Griffiths, who last week was in Kabul, at the conference of donors in Geneva.
Griffiths read a letter from the Taliban government which is committed, among other things, to "remove all obstacles to aid, protect the lives of humanitarian workers" and not to enter the bases of the UN and other NGOs, asking for help from the international community for reconstruction and fight against drug trafficking.
