Afghanistan is still facing the severe challenges in terms of humanitarian situation, livelihood and COVID-19.

The international community should provide economic, livelihood and humanitarian assistance to the country and help its people tide over the difficulties.

As the culprit of the Afghan issue, the US should earnestly fulfill its commitment to Afghanistan, assume its due responsibility and obligation, take active steps to help Afghanistan ease its economic difficulties on the premise of respecting Afghanistan's sovereignty and independence, rather than shift blames onto others and simply take to its heels, the spokesperson added.
