(Afghanistan Times): In reaction to recent statements of the state ministry for peace about ceasefire and violence reduction, the incumbent chief executive Dr. Abdullah said Monday that peace can never be monopolized by a single agency. Abdullah who was addressing a meeting of Council of Ministers said that the government of Afghanistan supports the peace process, but it doesn\u2019t mean it should be under the aegis of an individual or a ministry \u2013 rather \u201ca collective demand of an entire society\u201d. \u201cOnly the nation has the right to decide the fate of peace. And the negotiating team that will engage in talks with the Taliban should be all-inclusive; a single ministry cannot steer peace process in scale of a country,\u201d he said. He ranted at recent remarks made by the ministry last week that the President had issued a decree to form \u201csenior committee for coordination of peace efforts\u201d in bid to streamline the efforts. An official in the state ministry for peace, Najia Anwari, said earlier that Abdul Salam will be undertaking leadership of the President\u2019s committee and will be working to coordinate peace efforts with relevant government institutions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
