Security Council extends UNAMA mission in Afghanistan for another year

Prior to this, the Security Council had also extended UNAMA's mandate for a period of three months in the month of Hoot of the previous year; a decision that at the time was accompanied by the full consensus of Council members.


UNAMA, or the "United Nations Assistance Mission in Afghanistan," was established on March 28, 2002, based on Security Council Resolution 1401, and has been operating as the United Nations' primary entity in Afghanistan since that time.


The initial objective of this mission was to assist in the implementation of the Bonn Agreement; an agreement that, following the fall of the Taliban’s first regime, laid the groundwork for a new political framework in Afghanistan.


Since that time, UNAMA's mandate has been extended by the Security Council in various periods and, in some instances, subjected to review.

The United Nations Security Council has extended the mandate of the United Nations Assistance Mission in Afghanistan (UNAMA) for another year. This resolution, which had been tabled by China, was adopted with 15 votes in favor from Council members.
