BERLIN: Hunger, starvation and poverty are rampant everywhere after the Taliban rule in Afghanistan. Thus the Afghan people, who have no other choice, are forced to sell their organs and children for a pittance. The Taliban have regained control of Afghanistan after 20 years of US withdrawal. The Taliban regime has not been recognized by the world community and its economy has plummeted. Thus hunger, starvation and poverty are rampant across the country. No jobs. No way to income. As a result, many families are left without money for food and daily necessities.
Meanwhile, the head of the UN World Food Program, David Busley, said that many Afghans were selling their body parts and children due to poverty. Many have even sold their kidneys for a mouthful. 5 year olds, 10 year olds and girls can be sold. “Of the approximately 4 million people in Afghanistan, 2.3 million are currently below the poverty line,” Busley said. Most of them are trapped in the grip of poverty.
Many other people have sold their kidneys and babies. If this trend continues, 97 percent of the country’s population is at risk of falling below the poverty line by the end of this year. ” Therefore, the UN has once again urged the nations of the world to come forward to help the people of Afghanistan. Representatives of the European Union, France, Germany, Italy, Norway, Italy, the United Kingdom and the United States participated in the recent peace talks in Osla. It is noteworthy that the meeting called for action to provide humanitarian assistance to Afghanistan.
