Deputy Afghan FM Hekmat Karzai resigns citing ‘serious opinion differences’
2018-10-18
[Khaama (Afghanistan)] The Deputy Afghan Foreign Minister Hekmat Khalil Karzai has resigned from his position citing the existence of ’serious opinion differences’ with the government of national unity.

In his resignation letter to President Mohammad Ashraf Ghani
...former chancellor of Kabul University, now president of Afghanistan. Before returning to Afghanistan in 2002 he was a scholar of political science and anthropology. He worked at the World Bank working on international development assistance. As Finance Minister of Afghanistan between July 2002 and December 2004, he led Afghanistan's attempted economic recovery until the Karzais stole all the money. ..
, Mr. Karzai has said he would prefer to remain alongside the people and resign from his position due to the existing differences in opinions with the government’s leadership.

Karzai further added that the existing differences have limited the working space for him to continue to his work for the national benfits of the country.

He also added that such differences would have negative impacts on his services to continue to his work to defend the basic rights of the Afghan people, emphasizing that he would rather remain on the side of his people considering the current situation.

Mr. Karzai has not elaborated further in this regard with the Office of the President, ARG Palace, yet to comment in this regard.
