The international community must develop a strategy to prevent Afghanistan from becoming a haven for militants, the Italian prime minister said.

An extraordinary summit of the G20 countries will be held on October 12. World leaders will discuss the situation in Afghanistan after the seizure of power by the Taliban. Italian Prime Minister Mario Draghi said this at a press conference. Reuters Wednesday, September 29th.

It was Italy that took the initiative to hold such a summit. Rome considers it necessary to involve China, Turkey and Russia in solving the problem.

“We need to look at the common goals of all the G20 countries … We are talking about a humanitarian disaster. The country has no external support. We need the richest countries to do something,” Draghi said.

The international community should also develop a strategy to prevent Afghanistan from becoming a haven for militants, he said.

The extraordinary G20 meeting will take place a few weeks before the leaders’ summit scheduled for October 30-31 in Rome. Draghi said it will also involve Qatar, the IMF, the World Bank and the UN.

Recall Afghanistan faces financial collapse… The country’s banking system is facing an “existential crisis” due to customer panic.
