A gathering of Islamic clerics in Mazar-e-Sharif called for the formation of an inclusive government, saying that all tribes should be included in the government.
The clerics made the remarks in a gathering in which the charge d’affaires of the Iran embassy in Kabul also participated.
Some Islamic clerics and tribal elders called for an inclusive government to be formed.
“All tribes– whether they are Pashuns, Uzbek, Tajik or Hazara or any other tribe, they should take them on their side based on their contribution,” said Mubaligh, a cleric.
“There is employment. They (Islamic Emirate) may pay attention to the employment to provide job opportunities for the citizens,” said Mohammad Younus Ayoubi, a tribal elder.
“The Islamic Emirate cannot address the problems due to the challenges it faces. Addressing the problems of unemployment is in fact addressing the hunger in Afghanistan,” said Rahmatullah, a cleric.
The deputy Minister of Borders and Tribal Affairs, Abdul Khaliq Abid, said that the Islamic Emirate members should be respected.
“Why I am being punished. I am a Mujahid, or brother of a Mujahid or father of a Mujahid. The Mujahideen paid a lot of sacrifices,” he said.
Earlier, the Islamic Emirate said that its government is inclusive and that calls from foreign countries for the formation of an inclusive government is an interference in Afghan internal affairs.https://tolonews.com/afghanistan-180424
