山本特别代表的通报和秘书长的报告（S/2016/768）都清楚地描述了阿富汗境内持续存在的挑战，尤其是安全方面。尽管如此，我们仍感到振奋的是，阿富汗继续坚韧不拔地应对挑战并稳步推进恢复和平与法制的努力。在这方面，我们欢迎政府在填补关键行政职位方面所取得的进展以及在完成这项任务时所采取的包容方式。阿富汗政府承诺并持续致力于举行议会和县级选举，这同样值得赞扬。各种地方和平倡议——特别是省级政府和民间社会代表7月20日通过了一些决议，承诺努力在本县实现和平——也是鼓舞人心的进展。迄今为止在执行改革议程方面所取得的逐步进展，是朝着正确方向迈出的步伐，应当得到联合国和国际社会的进一步鼓励和支持。

Despite that, we are encouraged that Afghanistan continues to show resilience in addressing the challenges and in making steady progress towards restoring peace and the rule of law. In that regard, we welcome the progress made by the Government in filling key executive posts, and the inclusive manner in which that task was undertaken. The Government’s commitment and ongoing efforts to hold parliamentary and district-level elections are also commendable. The various local peace initiatives, particularly the adoption of resolutions by representatives of provisional Governments and civil society on 20 July, committing themselves towards working towards peace in their districts, are other encouraging developments. The incremental progress achieved in implementing the reform agenda thus far is a step in the right direction and should be further The situation in Afghanistan 14/09/2016 encouraged and supported by the United Nations and the international community.
