The UK supports the Afghan government's ambition to become a more prosperous and stable state. The ongoing conflict adds to the challenges around this. There have been signs of progress: October's parliamentary elections, the first Afghan-led and secured election since 2001, saw over four million Afghans vote. We are now working with partners to encourage Afghanistan's Election Management bodies learn lessons from these elections ahead of the presidential poll in 2019.<\/p>
The UK believes that a political solution to the conflict between the Taliban and the Afghan government is the only way to achieve lasting stability in Afghanistan.

During the time-limited implementation period, EU law will continue to apply in the UK subject to the terms set out in the Withdrawal Agreement. After the implementation period, all laws in the UK will be passed by our elected representatives in Belfast, Cardiff, Edinburgh and London. The Political Declaration recognises that the UK may choose to align with the EU's rules in relevant areas to facilitate trade in goods or security cooperation.<\/p>
In the unlikely event that the backstop were to come into effect, a small fraction of EU rules applying today would apply in Northern Ireland, and EU rules on state aid would apply in the UK. However, as the Withdrawal Agreement and the Political Declaration make absolutely clear, we do not want or expect the backstop to be needed \u2013 and even if it ever were ever to come into effect, it would be strictly temporary.<\/p>
