Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab said:

“The UK stands with NATO and the people of Afghanistan to support a more stable, peaceful future for the country, and the wider region. We will support an orderly departure of our forces, whilst building up Afghanistan’s capacity for self-governance, and continuing counter-terrorism support - to protect the gains made over the last 20 years.”
