HCNR Official Calls for Political Consensus to Strengthen Peace
Farida Momand, a member of the High Council of National Reconciliation (HCNR), on Wednesday said that mistrust between the political leaders, the people and the government has been the fundamental obstacle to building political consensus in the country for a long time.
She warned that the peace process will be deadlocked if there is an absence of a powerful consensus between the country’s political leaders, the people and the government, adding that the gap will also lead to the emergence of a new crisis in the country.
This comes days after President Ashraf Ghani, as part of consultations on peace, met with a number of political leaders of the country including former president Hamid Karzai; however, there are no reports about what was discussed in the meetings when it came to the continuation of Ghani’s tenure in office.
