The President said the Jirga delegates presented a roadmap and an action plan for the Afghan government in the form of a resolution. “I want to assure the people that the resolution of the peace Jirga will make a big part of the peace policy of the government.” The President said the Afghan government has accepted the Jirga delegates call and it supports any effort which leads to peace in the country.
