Former UN envoy visits The Hague

19 Jul 2024 | Lakhdar Brahimi, former UN special envoy to Afghanistan and Iraq, is visiting the Ministry of Foreign Affairs today for talks with development minister Bert Koenders.
Topics include Brahimi’s experiences in conflict areas and the current status of the Dutch mission in Afghanistan. The minister is particularly interested in Brahimi’s findings in fragile states such as Afghanistan, Iraq and Sudan, where government authorities have great difficulty performing key tasks, such as providing security, a fair justice system and education.
