我们今天通过的关于阿富汗的主席声明（S/PRST/2016/14）向阿富汗人民发出了一个明确的信号，即安全理事会全力支持阿富汗努力解决安全、经济和发展挑战。但是，阿富汗政府必须着手实际执行国家改革，而不是发表声明。这将有助于维护整个国际社会的信心和意愿，以协助该国奋力维护主权和领土完整，同时为阿富汗和更广大地区的和平、安全与繁荣奠定坚实基础。
By adopting today’s presidential statement on Afghanistan (S/PRST/2016/14), we are sending a clear sign to the Afghan people about the Security Council’s full support of Afghanistan in its endeavours to address security, economic and development challenges. However, it is important that the Afghan Government proceed with the actual implementation of national reforms instead of issuing declarative statements. That will help to preserve the confidence of the whole international community and its readiness to assist this country in its struggle for sovereignty and territorial integrity, while creating a sound foundation for peace, security and prosperity both in Afghanistan and the wider region.
