After vote, Afghanistan still can't form working government. Why? (+video)

Kabul, Afghanistan The Afghan parliament today rejected the majority of President Ashraf Ghanis cabinet nominees, a development expected to further delay the formation of an Afghan government that has been in limbo for nearly a year.

The legislature voted on 18 of the 25 government cabinet positions, approving just eight officials and a new intelligence chief. The parliament is now scheduled to begin its winter break, meaning Afghans may wait more than a month before the other positions are filled.

The parliaments vote is a setback for the unity government of Mr. Ghani and Abdullah Abdullah, Afghanistans chief executive officer. The vote follows a six-month election dispute between the two men, followed by three months of deliberation to appoint cabinet nominees. The struggle to finalize a working government is causing many Afghans to lose faith in their leaders.

As there are delays, the people of Afghanistan are getting distant from [Ghani and Mr. Abdullah]. This is a matter of great concern to them, says Kamal Sapai, a parliamentarian from Kunduz Province in northern Afghanistan.

Many Afghans had hoped a new cabinet would signal forward progress. But after Ghani and Abdullah took ample time to submit a list of nominees, many of them fell apart under scrutiny.

I am one of the supporters of this government and have been from the beginning, says Sayed Ishaq Gailani, who leads the National Solidarity Movement of Afghanistan, a political party, and is close to Abdullah. This was a failure of both leaders. They failed after a 100 days of making the people of Afghanistan wait.

There were problems vetting the nominees from the beginning. Mohammad Yaqub Haidari, nominee for minister of agriculture, was removed from consideration after it was discovered Interpol sought him for large-scale tax evasion, fraudulent conversion, according to Interpols website.

Additional layers of complication arose when the parliament took issue with seven nominees who held dual citizenship. Previously, parliament passed a resolution stating that ministers could not hold dual nationality. That stance poses a significant challenge for many Afghans, however, who, after more than three decades of war, have spent considerable time overseas. The stricture hits many of those with high-levels of education and strong qualifications.

Age limits of 35 for ministers represent another hurdle. Khatera Afghan, for example, nominee for the minister of higher education, is alleged to be under 35; he was voted down today.

Members of parliament also took issue with more subjective issues, such as the relevance of formal education and experience, and with questions like ties to communism, which several have. Many worry that communists could become alienating figures, pushing away both the Taliban and former anti-Soviet mujahideen who share Communists as an enemy, and thus complicate reconciliation efforts.

The Darkness that Surrounds the Lustration Law

Albanian society, despite the economical problems, the unemployment and the price hike, must come out of its torpor and prove itself even in front of a decisive test in relation to the communist past, although in this matter it is more delayed than all other former communist societies of the camp

By Agron Tufa

In March of 2013, a group of specialists from the Research Institution of Crimes and Consequences of Communism, with the aid and the mediation of German foundation Konrad Adenauer, made a several-day visit in the institutions of Memory of the Dictatorships in Berlin and other German cities, getting familiar with the concrete experience on facing the crimes and the heritage of both types of dictatorships, the Nazism and communism. On the last day, a meeting was reserved to the Albanian group with two German MEPs in the Bundestag. Albanian representatives, among others, issued the concern of the recidivist revival of dictatorship nostalgia by political and academic segments, who, in the absence of some lustration law, have taken courage for some brutal behavior and provocative gestures. European MPs was asked that among the duties that EU appoints to Albanian Parliament in the road towards European integration, it should be also appointed as main duty the cleaning of the communist past and the interruption of its legacy, the disclosure of files and the lustration law, together with a clear operational strategy and platform for the decommunistization of Albanian society and its institutions.

The answer of the European MPs was that the Albanian society should expose this particular issue, through its movements and NGOs. There should be some internal movement of the civil society in order for EU to react on this matter, and here lies the condition according to them.

Is there such healthy civil society in Albania? Are there in Albania such associations that have established as the main pillar in every democratic vision and action the issue on the hygiene of consciousness? Or have all the NGOs operated based on the predefined scheme of building a kiosk, while in its foundation they were baptized by the satanic trinity: a former officer of the Secret Service, a politician and businessman that keep sponsoring activities, until their profile is made public? The outcome is obvious, after a long apprenticeship in the name of alleged human rights and civil liberties, the NGO removes its mask in order to touch the destination set by the Baptists, in other words, the participation in the Parliament as a political party.

No one could tell this to German MEPs. There was the risk of not being understood.

But during the last year there was an initiative of the Albanian Group for Human Rights, which asked the support of the stakeholders on a new platform for the lustration law, a movement which directly awakened some other interested individuals, who rushed to proclaim some lustration platform on their own. In this way some other parallel initiators were advertized, independent institutions, who were particularly troubled by cleaning the society from the dictatorship crimes. Obviously, nothing was finalized as in all other cases of these two decades.

Again this month a persistent debate was issued, now in another level with a wider alliance: Albanian Group for Human Rights in cooperation with two lawmakers, Mrs. Mesila Doda and Mr. Shpetim Idrizi, officially undertook a concrete step, filing in Albanian Parliament the platform of the lustration law, with the request on including it in the parliamentary discussion agenda. The first opinions on the necessity of finding a solution were expressed by renowned writers, who have consistently treated this public sensitivity.

But again the executive rushed with projects to emulate this initiative, with the idea that this (lustration) law is being adapted from the German one, as if the previous law that was rejected on 2009 wasnt. A repeated situation as in dj-vu.

The most recent development during the last ten days is the gathering of Albanian Group for Human Rights and the group of Students of December, which in a broader presence of renowned journalists and representatives of the association of political prisoners discussed on a structured and organized motion not only on the lustration law, but also for a political platform of the decommunistization of the society from the criminal heritage of communist dictatorship.
