When Karzai was interviewed in the presidential palace in Kabul in Afghanistan, he mentioned that Mullah Omar has all the potential to become the president of the country. He also alleged that he is fit for the presidential post which enhanced his hopes of winning the position this year. With the statement of Karzai, the mindset of the Afghans ischanging as they are thinking of voting for him, for this superior and responsible post.

The constitution of Afghans is valid for them and at the same time Talibans can take the advantage form this in casting their vote in the elections. Karzai also revealed this fact in the interview.

Mullah Muhammad Omar, the supreme and powerful commander in Afghanistan holds equal importance among Talibans. It is reported that Omar is responsible for $10 million bonus from the US. Being a strong and robust talismatic figure for all the rebels in the last 10 years war against foreigners and the Afghan troops.

Hamid Karzai, the president of Afghanistan wants Mr. Omar to contest for the next elections. It is noted that Omar has been missing for many days while he was interviewed for the German daily newspaper. He wants the people of the Taliban lay down the arms and ammunition and involve in the elections deeply. Karzai took all the pain in travelling to Qatar to discuss this matter. Recently, the Afghan government permitted the Talibans to start their office in Qatar with a condition to cease terrorism, and any association with al Qaeda has to be broken.

While discussing this issue, the president mentioned that the problem to fight against terrorism lies with Pakistan and the real problem has not been discussed yet. Coming to elections for the year 2014, he mentioned that these elections will be the turning point in the history of Afghanistan which will try to infiltrate the troops from entering the country.

As the term of the president is coming to an end, he is not eligible to contest in the elections according to the rules and regulations of the constitution. Mr. Karzai also complained that his country and the government have been disliked by the countries in the West. He mentioned that he wants to improve the relationship and will strive forwards for it. Further, he added that his country should not be considered as mere objects and people should treat them with respect as allies.

Karzai also visited few other places including the Gulf Arab. The US ally conciliated the fights and conflicts in the countries with Muslim populations and in Arab. This was followed by a discussion to come into an agreement to settle all the issues related to Afghanistan, Talibans, Pakistan and the United States.

All these efforts will certainly improve the current status of the country and the future prospects looks good as Mr. Omar is likely to win the elections.

The recent talks with Taliban and the change in the political scenario, have led the president of Afghanistan to change his mood. Keeping in mind the exit of US and NATO troops from the country, this leads speculation of change in the political leadership, in the country. Most of people think that after the exit of NATO troops from the country, Taliban will get more momentum in their attacks. After recent attacks in Kabul, the Afghan president speaks openly about the changes in the political scene. Hamid Karzai accuses US officials that they are behind some killing and blast in order to prolong their stay in the country.

This statement is a clear message to the non-Pashtuns that Pashtuns are an enemy of your country, and he wants to get the support of non Pashtun people in upcoming elections. Most of the people thinks that this statement is just to capture the attention of people by accusing the US officials in prolong their stay in the country. Almost more than 60% of the people living in Afghanistan are non-Pashtuns, and they believe that Pashtuns will take over the government once America leaves the country. In fact, they are the supporters of America and this statement was meant to capture the attentions of non-Pashtun people. They think that America and NATO are the best guarantee against the takeover of Pashtun Taliban’s.

Things are getting changed after the US officials admitted that they had held talks with the leadership of Taliban in Qatar. It has been a clear sign that the US and NATO want to leave the country. Hamid Karzai and the pro-American lobby in the country feel that America must take Afghan government in confidence before negotiations with Taliban. However, at some parts of the country, the Afghan police and the army took charge but they are not as strong as the NATO. They fear that Taliban’s will come again, and they will rule them for the next decades.

On the other side, things are getting worse for America as people are starting to raise questions against the American policy regarding terrorism. People feel that America is wasting its money and life of soldiers. It has been more than 10 years now, and they are unable to create peace in the country. Although they killed the most wanted person on the earth last year, but still they didn’t achieve the goals and objective they wanted to achieve.

Keeping all in mind, president Karzai and the USA officials have spoken freely on their issues. Mr. Hagel, the defense secretary, cancelled the joint press conference in Afghanistan with Karzai. He sent the message that this press conference was cancelled due to security reasons. He further told the media that now the American people are not sacrificing the life of their men and women for the people of Afghanistan.

In short, the negotiations with Taliban leadership besides the exit of the NATO and US troops from Afghanistan are major reasons behind the sour relationship between the Karzai government and the US officials.
