    The President of the United States has decided to continue the national emergency concerning the humanitarian crisis and potential economic collapse in Afghanistan. This emergency, first declared in 2022, addresses serious concerns about food security, health, and basic needs for the Afghan people, as well as the status of Afghan financial assets in the U.S. Due to ongoing threats to U.S. national security and foreign policy, this emergency will be extended for another year beyond its planned end date in 2024. This action is taken in accordance with U.S. laws regarding national emergencies.

    Simple Explanation

    The President decided to keep taking special steps to help people in Afghanistan who don't have enough food or health care. This is because there are still big problems that could affect America too.
