The report revealed the United States and its allies have supported the Afghan economy with “cash shipments” averaging $80 million that “arrive in Kabul every 10-14 days” ever since the Taliban takeover and President Joe Biden’s disastrous withdrawal in 2021. The U.S. has sent over $11 billion in assistance to Afghanistan and Afghan refugees since then.
Also, while humanitarian groups correctly point out that economic instability hurts the poorest residents of Afghanistan, the Taliban is poised to reap benefits from the economy that American taxpayers have spent so much money “stabilizing.” “The U.N., NGOs , and other entities involved in aid efforts have paid administrative fees to various Taliban ministries, and these fees were recorded by the Taliban as inland revenue,” the report noted.
“As a result, 49 U.N humanitarian partner programs temporarily suspended operations in August, and 36 remained suspended as of September,” SIGAR noted, singling out “Taliban interference with staff recruitment” as one of the major problems. SIGAR said the Taliban has aggressively “shaped governing institutions to serve their aims and cement power,” imposing an “ultra-conservative and radical religious ideology based on its own harsh interpretation of Islam” despite early promises to be more moderate than the previous Taliban regime.
