And the third option is that based on Article 68 of the Constitution, the parliament speaker, which will be introduced later, should take charge of the country and pave the way for power transition,” Arif Kayani, a spokesman from Nabil’s team, explained.
Why India Chose Silence on Accepting Afghan Envoys? December 22,2020
KABUL - Afghanistan has no envoy in India since two and a half years as New Delhi has chosen silence to approve or reject the credentials of an Afghan envoy introduced to the country 16 months ago. Turkey, Tajikistan, Holland and Kuwait are other countries who in recent years have been silent over approval of credentials from Afghan envoys. Some experts say intelligence concerns and disregard for diplomatic and international norms as well as internal political differences in Afghanistan are to blame for disapproval of Afghan envoys to foreign countries. Shaida Mohammad Abdali was the last ambassador to India where he served for six years before resigning in September 2018.
