(Afghanistan Times): Taliban militants have claimed that President Ashraf Ghani\u2019s government is breathing last, accusing it of trying to sabotage the ongoing peace efforts. The comments came in reaction to Ghani\u2019s First Vice President, Amrullah Saleh who demanded execution of Taliban fighters held in government custody. Ghani\u2019s political opposition parties want him to step aside and hand the power to an interim administration. \u201cThe Kabul administration is taking its last breaths and has already lost all of its trump cards,\u201d Taliban said Tuesday in a statement. Mr. Saleh has recently said that Taliban increase attacks since they think they enjoy impunity. He suggested the execution of Taliban prisoners. \u201cThe government of Afghanistan that claims to be democratic has forgotten that based on its democracy, prisoners of war should not be executed because they have the rights from the aspect of this chaffy democracy,\u201d Taliban\u2019s statement said.The statement also blamed the government for targeted killings, saying Kabul tries to keep foreign forces by this trick so that they themselves remain in power and use more incomes of invasion.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
