National Front accuse government of wasting billions in foreign aid
THE MAIN opposition party has called on donors at next month’s Afghanistan conference in Paris to discuss law enforcement, the reasons behind “people’s hatred” of the current government and increasing instability.
The National Front (NF) said pumping cash into Afghanistan would not solve Afghanistan’s current problems.
The government will ask foreign donors for $20 billion at next month’s Paris conference.
The NF said the Afghan government had so far failed to live up to the promises it made to donors at previous conferences and accused it of wasting billions of dollars.
The opposition party said the government must handover a transparent report detailing how it has spent foreign money donated by the international community over the last few years.
A spokesman for the NF, Said Fazil Sangcharaki, said during a press conference yesterday (Wednesday) that the exclusion of Afghanistan’s opposition party from the conference would have a negative impact on its success.
The government refused to comment on the NF's accusations.
