RECONSTRUCTION UPDATE RECONSTRUCTION UPDATE OVERVIEW According to the United Nations Secretary-General, there was no substantive movement towards peace between the Afghan government and the Taliban this quarter. Taliban leaders reportedly believe that the 2016 fighting season was a success and, for the time being, see no incentive to enter into a strategic negotiation process. On December 23, 2016, the Taliban again publicly rejected peace talks, reiterating their long-held stance that talk of peace and reconciliation is “meaningless” as long as foreign forces remain in Afghanistan. The same day, President Barack Obama signed the Fiscal Year (FY) 2017 National Defense Authorization Act, authorizing up to $4.26 billion for the Afghanistan Security Forces Fund (ASFF.) The ASFF is the United States’ principal fund to build, train, equip, and sustain the Afghan National Defense and Security Forces (ANDSF). President Obama pledged to recommend to his successor that the United States continue to seek funding for the ANDSF at or near current levels through 2020. For its part, the international community pledged at the October 2016 NATO summit in Warsaw to provide more than $800 million annually for the ANDSF from 2018 to 2020. <strong>SIGAR</strong>’s analysis of the most recent data provided by U.S. Forces in Afghanistan (USFOR-A) suggests that the security situation in Afghanistan has not improved this quarter. The numbers of the Afghan security forces are decreasing, while both casualties and the number of districts under insurgent control or influence are increasing. The Afghan government faced tensions within the executive branch over the actions of First Vice-President Abdul Rashid Dostum and conflict between the executive and parliament over the dismissal of seven government ministers. In October, First Vice-President Dostum publicly accused President Ashraf Ghani and Chief Executive Abdullah Abdullah of nepotism and ethnic bias in government appointments. Both Ghani and Abdullah’s offices condemned Dostum’s statement. Then on November 24, Dostum reportedly kidnapped a political rival, a former governor of Jowzjan Province. Once released, the victim accused Dostum on national television of ordering him to be beaten and raped with REPORT TO THE UNITED STATES CONGRESS I JANUARY 30, 2017 65
