                Resolution 1988 (2011)
                Adopted by the Security Council at its 6557th meeting, on
                17 June 2011 *

                     The Security Council,
                     Recalling its previous resolutions on international terrorism and the threat it
                poses to Afghanistan, in particular its resolutions 1267 (1999), 1333 (2000), 1363
                (2001), 1373 (2001), 1390 (2002), 1452 (2002), 1455 (2003), 1526 (2004), 1566
                (2004), 1617 (2005), 1624 (2005), 1699 (2006), 1730 (2006), 1735 (2006), 1822
                (2008), 1904 (2009) and the relevant statements of its President,
                      Recalling its previous resolutions extending through March 22, 2012 the
                mandate of the United Nations Assistance Mission in Afghanistan (UNAMA) as
                established by resolution 1974 (2011),
                      Reaffirming that the situation in Afghanistan still constitutes a threat to
                international peace and security, and expressing its strong concern about the security
                situation in Afghanistan, in particular the ongoing violent and terrorist activities by
                the Taliban, Al-Qaida, illegal armed groups, criminals and those involved in the
                narcotics trade, and the strong links between terrorism activities and illicit drugs,
                resulting in threats to the local population, including children, national security
                forces and international military and civilian personnel,
                      Reaffirming its strong commitment to the sovereignty, independence, territorial
                integrity and national unity of Afghanistan,
                      Stressing the importance of a comprehensive political process in Afghanistan
                to support reconciliation among all Afghans, and recognizing there is no purely
                military solution that will ensure the stability of Afghanistan,
                     Recalling the Government of Afghanistan’s strong desire to seek national
                reconciliation, as set forth in the Bonn Agreement (2001), the London Conference
                (2010), and the Kabul Conference (2010),
                     Recognizing that the security situation in Afghanistan has evolved and that
                some members of the Taliban have reconciled with the Government of Afghanistan,
                have rejected the terrorist ideology of Al-Qaida and its followers, and support a
                peaceful resolution to the continuing conflict in Afghanistan,

                     Recognizing that notwithstanding the evolution of the situation in Afghanistan
               and progress in reconciliation, the situation in Afghanistan remains a threat to
               international peace and security, and reaffirming the need to combat this threat by
               all means, in accordance with the Charter of the United Nations and international
               law, including applicable human rights, refugee and humanitarian law, stressing in
               this regard the important role the United Nations plays in this effort,
                    Recalling that the conditions for reconciliation, open to all Afghans, laid forth
               in the 20 July 2010 Kabul Communique, supported by the Government of
               Afghanistan and the international community, include the renunciation of violence,
               no links to international terrorist organizations, and respect for the Afghan
               Constitution, including the rights of women and persons belonging to minorities,
                     Stressing the importance of all individuals, groups, undertakings and entities
               participating, by any means, in the financing or support of acts or activities of those
               previously designated as the Taliban, as well as those individuals, groups,
               undertakings and entities associated with the Taliban in constituting a threat to the
               peace, stability and security of Afghanistan, accepting the Government of
               Afghanistan’s offer of reconciliation,
                     Taking note of the Government of Afghanistan’s request that the Security
               Council support national reconciliation by removing Afghan names from the UN
               sanctions lists for those who respect the conditions for reconciliation, and, therefore,
               have ceased to engage in or support activities that threaten the peace, stability and
               security of Afghanistan,
                     Welcoming the results of the Consultative Peace Jirga held on 6 June 2010, in
               which 1,600 Afghan delegates, representing a broad cross-section of all Afghan
               ethnic and religious groups, government officials, religious scholars, tribal leaders,
               civil society, and Afghan refugees residing in Iran and Pakistan, discussed an end to
               insecurity and developed a plan for lasting peace in the country,
                     Welcoming the establishment of the High Peace Council and its outreach
               efforts both within and outside Afghanistan,
                     Stressing the central and impartial role that the United Nations continues to
               play in promoting peace, stability and security in Afghanistan, and expressing its
               appreciation and strong support for the ongoing efforts of the Secretary-General, his
               Special Representative for Afghanistan and the UNAMA Salaam Support Group to
               assist the High Peace Council’s peace and reconciliation efforts,
                    Reiterating its support for the fight against illicit production and trafficking of
               drugs from, and chemical precursors to, Afghanistan, in neighbouring countries,
               countries on trafficking routes, drug destination countries and precursors producing
               countries,
                     Expressing concern at the increase in incidents of kidnapping and hostagetaking with the aim of raising funds, or gaining political concessions, and expressing
               the need for this issue to be addressed,
                     Reiterating the need to ensure that the present sanctions regime contributes
               effectively to ongoing efforts to combat the insurgency and support the Government
               of Afghanistan’s work to advance reconciliation in order to bring about peace,
               stability, and security in Afghanistan, and considering the 1267 Committee’s
               deliberations on the recommendation of the 1267 Monitoring Team in its Eleventh


2                                                                                                         11-37901

                                                                                                     S/RES/1988 (2011)
