With the US military drawdown from Afghanistan on the verge of completion, the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) is set to meet at 3 pm Eastern Time (ET) Monday, to discuss the ongoing developments in Afghanistan.

The UN Security Council is likely to be briefed by a UN official on the latest situation in the war-ravaged country, CNN reported. Earlier, France, the UK and non-Council member Germany proposed a resolution "calling for safe passage for those leaving Afghanistan," that would include counterterrorism, human rights, and humanitarian elements.
