Today, these very freedoms are under attack from global terrorism. We must confront the threat of terrorism as a united force,

.....and meet it with a long-term solution that matches the long-term agenda of the terrorists themselves.

The ethnic cleansing of the Rohingya is especially shocking. Aung San Suu Kyi’s lengthy silence was tragic,

......as our hopes that an icon of human rights would choose principle over power.

If the UN is to be relevant to countries like mine, it must deliver as One UN. But this has not yet been fulfilled.

We have borne adversity, deprivation and drought with dignity; met invasion with valor; defended our homeland with patriotic fervor.

With President Trump’s recent announcement of his strategy to counter terror and stabilize South Asia,

Afghanistan’s enduring partnership with the United States and the international community has been renewed and redirected.
