World must accept possible Taliban election win: France - Naveed Yaseen - 03-10-2009 06:10 AM PARIS (March 10 2009): The world must accept the results of Afghanistans elections in August even if hardline Taliban militants win, French Foreign Minister Bernard Kouchner said in an interview Monday. "We must respect the result of the elections whatever it is," he told Le Figaro daily. "If the nationalist Taliban come to power through the vote and accept the constitution, that is the Afghans business. "What we cannot accept is support for international jihad," Kouchner added. The French minister added that "there is no question of making (Afghanistan) a Western-style democracy." http://www.brecorder.com/index.php?id=4983 |
