Kabul (BNA) Elections are a national process that explains the will of people for establishment of democratic system. Afghan people, who believe to strengthening and extension of a democratic system in their country, consider attack on elections sites attack on themselves.
BNA political affairs analyst commenting on the issue writes recently Taliban releasing a statement have threatened that they would disrupt the process of the elections and asked the people not to participate in the elections. Taliban also instructed their followers to stand against the process.
Taliban warn people not participate in elections in time while the people firmly believe that the only way for transmission of power is possible via holding elections and it is a national process.
The people insist that the program of holding elections should be supported as a national process because observing the process in reality is honoring the intention of the nation and supporting the people.
Taliban exactly warn the people not to participate in elections in a time, they themselves are talking with Americans and deliberating for determining their position in upcoming politics of Afghanistan.
The reason for joining in political process is to reach an agreement and further strengthens the incentive that the problems can be settled only via patient, accepting each other and ending the killing of innocent people.
Joining of Taliban in to political process indicate that they have understood that fighting and creating tension is not the way for settling the problems anymore. But unfortunately, their last declaration clearly show that the group still consider terrorist actions and fighting the way for achieving their objectives which is not proper for a new political life.
The people responding to the threats of Taliban have said that thy have made their decision to go the elections sites and vote and never surrender to such threats.
Therefore it would be better to support elections as a national process that leads to a democratic system in the country according to people’s will.
September 28 is a day determined for holding the elections and we are certain that the eligible people ignoring the threats will go to polling stations and cast their votes for their favorite candidates.
