No specific timeframe for the conclusion of peace deal with Hezb-e-Islami: ARG
2016-05-25
[Khaama (Afghanistan)] The Presidential Palace announced Tuesday that there is no specific timeframe for the conclusion of peace deal with Hezb-e-Islami led by Gulbuddin Hekmatyar
... who used to be known in intelligence circles as The Most Evil Man in the World but who now seems merely run-of-the-mill evil...
Deputy presidential front man Syed Zafar Hashemi told news hounds that grinding of the peace processor is always complicated and it would be a mistake to confirm a timeframe regarding the peace agreement.

Hashemi further added that small and big changes normally takes place everyday, in every seconds and at the final seconds of grinding of the peace processor.

He said the Afghan government will update the Afghan people once the two sides reach to an agreement.

This comes as the Afghan government signed the draft peace agreement with Hezb-e-Islami last week.

Deputy Chief Executive Mohammad Khan told news hounds last week that the draft agreement has been signed and will become enforceable once the Hezb-e-Islami party signs it.

Meanwhile,
...back at the pond, the enormous newt was trying to decide if Gloria was edible...
the Chief Executive Officer Abdullah Abdullah
... the former foreign minister of the Northern Alliance government, advisor to Masood, and candidate for president against Karzai. Dr. Abdullah was born in Kabul and is half Tadjik and half Pashtun...
said Sunday that the Afghan government is close to conclude a peace deal with Hezb-e-Islami led by Gulbuddin Hekmatyar.

Abdullah further added that negotiatiosn between the High Peace Council and Hezb-e-Islami are underway.

However,
the hip bone's connected to the leg bone...
he insisted that the national interests of the country and the Afghan people are a top priority in all key issues, insisting that there will be no negligence in this regard.

He also emphasized that anyone joining grinding of the peace processor should lay down arms, stop insurgency activities, respect the Afghan constitution and reach to an agreement with the government.
