Quote by Lakhdar Brahimi
A fly cannot go in unless it stops somewhere therefore weapons, fuel, food, money will not go to Afghanistan unless the neighbors of Afghanistan are working, are cooperating, either being themselves the origin or the transit.
Summary
This quote suggests that for resources such as weapons, fuel, food, and money to reach Afghanistan, it is essential for the neighboring countries to support and cooperate with Afghanistan, either by providing these resources directly or by allowing their transit. The analogy of a fly highlights that in order for something to move forward or progress, it needs a stable base or support. Similarly, without the assistance of its neighbors, Afghanistan would struggle to receive the necessary supplies for sustenance and growth.
