Ready to pull out of Afghanistan over Taliban's curbs on women: UN

The United Nations (UN) said it's ready to take the "heartbreaking" decision to leave Afghanistan in May if it cannot persuade Taliban to allow women to work for the organisation. "If I were to imagine...UN...not being in Afghanistan today, I've before me...images of millions of...[people] who essentially will not have enough to eat," UN Development Programme's head, Achim Steiner, said.
