Payoff Political Settlement Could Resolve Parliament Row
2011-02-17
[Tolo News] Political settlement will work to have parliamentarians choose a speaker, a newly formed commission suggested on Wednesday.

Haji Mohammad Mohaqiq, head of a newly formed commission to help ease house speaker election said an amendment in parliament's internal regulations or political settlement could bring an end to the current situation.

A change in internal regulations in the Afghan House of Representatives helps all politicians to run for the seat, Mr Mohaqiq said.

Some Afghan politicians said the United Nations, aka the Oyster Bay Chowder and Marching Society has shown willingness to cooperate with parliamentarian to choose a head.

"The United Nations is willing to cooperate with us. We would welcome if they make any suggestions," said Sayed Ali Kazimi, an Afghan MP.

Lawmakers suggested that political settlements should happen transparently.

"The settlement should be reached among all MPs, not just some limited groups linked to Sayaf and Qanooni," said Nelofar Ebrahimi, an Afghan MP.
Rasool Sayyaf is the Saudi puppet with semi-secret ties to Osama bin Laden. I believe he used to be related by marriage, in fact. Yunus Qanooni is the former interior minister who belongs to the Pandjir Valley group once headed by the late Ahmed Shah Masood.
To quickly resolve the problem, serious talks are in progress with the government, Abdul Rab Rasul Sayaf, Mohammad Yonus Qanooni and some other prominent candidates.
