"Mr President, I asked for the floor in order to refer to the mission to Afghanistan. This subject is fraught with difficulties for all concerned. NATO and the European Union are both affected. In particular, I wanted to highlight the need to place greater emphasis on the requirement for humanitarian, social and economic aid for the Afghan people, who have unfortunately been subjected to the effects of war for 30 years. I raise this matter against the background of an escalation of actions involving attacks on soldiers in the context of the presidential election. As we are all aware, these attacks have become increasingly frequent and violent in the run up to the election. Such aid is particularly important in the context of developing trust and reconstructing the country.
Captain Daniel Ambroziński of the Polish Armed Forces lost his life recently in Afghanistan. It appears that his death was due essentially to the weakness of the Afghan Army and police, who succumbed to bribery. It is well known that the Afghan Army and police force are in a difficult financial situation. According to the media, Afghan soldiers are lucky if they earn USD 20. It is important for the military effort to be accompanied by social, humanitarian and economic aid."@en1
