Summary/Abstract: The article is the second part of studies showing Afghanistan's path towards adopting international instruments to protect human rights. Based on the acts of national and international law and historical sources, the conditions that led to the state's acceptance or rejection of international human rights treaties during the functioning of the Republic of Afghanistan was analysed. The main research goal is to show the changes in the state's political arena and the internal legal order, which conditioned the accession to the international instruments for the protection of human rights. Particular attention was paid to the state's situation in the context of international relations, including the impact of the Soviet Union on the government of Afghanistan.
