Presidential Palace 'Overlooked' Majority of CEO's Demands

Amid ongoing tensions between the National Unity Government (NUG) leaders, the office of the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) on Sunday said most of their demands and recommendations have been either rejected or ignored by the Presidential Palace.

The CEO's deputy spokesman Jawed Faisal said he believes that government affairs have not been carried out in a harmonized manner so far.

"Government has been faced with a number of problems. It lacks the required coordination. It has not been based on the directions of the NUG's political agreement," Faisal added.

Meanwhile, the Meshrano Jirga (Upper House of Parliament) Speaker Fazel Hadi Muslimyar said the tension will be overcome in the near future; however, former deputy spokesman for the CEO's office, Asif Ashna, accused the presidential palace of monopolizing the power.

"You heard what President [Ashraf Ghani] said about the continuation of the NUG activities. This indicates that the problem is not serious," Muslimyar said.

"The [CEO's} demands have been rejected, but the main problem is efforts to maintain a hegemony of power in Afghanistan. This goes back to political rifts for power in Afghanistan's history. Ignoring the implementation of the NUG political agreement is not a simple or random issue," Ashna said.
