Alicja Baczyńska reports:
Afghanistan will not be left to fend for itself - such is the key conclusion of representatives of over 100 countries and international organizations, who gathered at a Bonn conference under the banner "From Transition to Transformation” yesterday. Observers have stressed, however, that while commitments of continued assistance have been made by the West, the Afghan people had expected more concrete steps on the matter.
