Ignoring Afghanistan in the current situation will have devastating consequences

Nadeem Raza (IR Expert): Every organization of economic integration is founded and steered in accordance with the interests of great powers. The member states are mostly free riders that enjoy economic or political benefits if their interests fall in commonality with the interests of great powers. The current humanitarian crisis in Afghanistan is lingering as it is not in the national interest of great powers to bear the economic burden of war torn country. International community should keep aside their national interests as ignoring Afghanistan in the current situation will have devastating consequences on regional peace and stability. The United Nations should mobilize its standing committees otherwise its fate will be the same as of the League of Nations.
