Thank you.
I'm going to start with you, Mr. Nazary. Like the NDP member, I would ask you to keep your answers brief since we have less time.
Canada imposed sanctions on the Taliban regime under the regulations implementing the United Nations resolutions on Taliban, ISIL (Da’esh) and Al-Qaida. We know that countries have imposed sanctions on the Taliban regime independently of the measures taken by the UN. My question is twofold.
First, how effective are the measures taken under the UN resolutions?
Second, could Canada follow the lead of countries that decided to impose sanctions independently, on the basis of different triggers?
