UN Security Council

One year after the only government on earth to ban girls from secondary school, the Council's own elected members ran out of patience before its permanent five did.

2002
···
2022

The Taliban's return to power on August 15, 2021, ending UNAMA's two-decade-old mandate to support a very different Afghan government, left the Security Council with a mission whose founding premise, a post-Taliban reconstruction, had been inverted overnight. The Council's response over Kenya's remaining term settled into a familiar shape: periodic formal briefings and Arria-formula meetings, a single substantive resolution in December 2021 carving out humanitarian exemptions from Taliban-targeted sanctions, and a running argument, never quite resolved, over what engaging the Taliban should actually require.

Kenya's own statements return most often to two conditions the Council never formally imposed but Kenya's own delegation stated repeatedly: that any international engagement or recognition be predicated on the Taliban ending discrimination against women and girls, and on severing its ties to listed terrorist groups such as Al-Qaeda and the Islamic State's regional affiliate.

The starkest expression of the file's central grievance came collectively from the Council's full cohort of elected members: a joint E10-and-incoming-members press stakeout, issued exactly one year after the Taliban barred girls from secondary school, noting that Afghanistan had become "the only country in the entire world where girls are banned from attending secondary schools."

Not every session on this file was public. An October 2022 Arria-formula meeting convened by Norway on "Engaging Afghanistan" was explicitly convened as a closed, informal session: its own talking points instruct the speaker to thank Norway for the meeting's "informal and closed character." This is a genuine exception to this archive's usual treatment of Arria meetings as open by default, and a reminder that format has to be checked session by session rather than assumed from the meeting type alone.

Chronology

2002-03-28event

UNAMA established

The Security Council establishes the UN Assistance Mission in Afghanistan (UNAMA) under resolution 1401, a political mission to support the country's post-Taliban reconstruction, the mission whose mandate Kenya's own statements would be debating two decades later, under circumstances resolution 1401's drafters could not have anticipated.

2021-08-15event

Kabul falls to the Taliban

The Taliban capture Kabul with only sporadic resistance as President Ashraf Ghani flees the country, ending the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan and restoring the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan two decades after the Taliban's first government was removed from power. UNAMA relocates a temporary office to Almaty, Kazakhstan, the following month.

2021-12-22event

Security Council adopts resolution 2615, humanitarian sanctions exemptions

The Council adopts resolution 2615, creating a humanitarian exemption to the sanctions regime targeting the Taliban, so that humanitarian assistance and other activities supporting basic human needs in Afghanistan can continue without falling foul of the asset freeze and other measures. Kenya's own November 2022 Arria statement would cite this resolution as one of the Council's few substantive actions on the file in its first year.
