Executive Office Harshly Reacts Against UN Secretary’s Recent Remarks
The Executive Office has strongly reacted against the recent remarks by US Secretary General about the situation of Afghanistan.
Executive Office says the National Unity Government (NUG) leaders are committed to solve all challenges of the country.
“We can address our internal problems without the intervention of foreigners and the government leaders are committed to solve these challenges since the formation of this government,” said Jawid Faisal, deputy spokesman of CEO.
UN secretary general, Banki Mon in its three-months report has called the Afghan leaders the main factors for the instability in the country.
The failure in implementation of NUG political agreement by government leaders has always been questioning.
“UN criticism from government leaders is a true word. Up to when they want to wait to address the current challenges?,” said Senator Zulmay Zabuli.
Afghan residences are also not satisfied of NUG’s two years performance in the country.
“The National Unity Government has not done anything positive and always made problems for the people,” said Sultan Zooy, Kabul inhabitant.
Muhammad Aref, another Afghan residence said, “We have not seen a good day since the formation of National Unity Government, the government leaders have forgotten the power of people.”
This comes as the security situation deteriorates day by day in most parts of the country.
