No corrupt officials in govt: Karzai
KABUL: Afghan President Hamid Karzai, under fire from his international partners to clean up his administration, insisted on Sunday theres no place for corrupt officials within his government. Individuals who are involved in corruption will have no place in the government, Karzai said in an interview with the US Public Broadcasting Service. The presidential press office released comments from the interview. Karzai also said donor countries share some of the responsibility for rampant corruption because of a poorly structured system to manage projects. There is no accountability of their contracts and there is a serious corruption in the implementation of those projects. And the responsibility for this corruption is the international community, Karzai said. I am hopeful that by joint cooperation we will be able to overcome all these challenges.
