挑战源自将近40年的战争。尽管取得了切实进展，但阿富汗要充分满足其人民的需求，仍有很长的路要走。即将举行的布鲁塞尔会议可能为阿富汗政府向实现稳定和自力更生迈进提供时间和空间。政府应当抓住这一机会。为应对其各种挑战，政府必须能够切实采取行动。目前岌岌可危的政治局势，包括政府两位领导人之间的紧张状况，必须得到解决。必须找到一个途径来确保政府长期稳定。
The challenges derive from almost 40 years of war. Despite very real progress, Afghanistan still has a long way to go to meet fully the needs of its people. The upcoming Brussels Conference could provide the time and space for the Afghan Government to move towards stability and seif-reliance. The Government should seize this opportunity. In order to meet its challenges, the Government must be able to act effectively. The current precarious political situation, including the tensions between the two leaders of the Government, must be brought to a resolution. A way must be found to ensure stability in the Government for the long-term.
