My role in promoting reform in Afghanistan - Kai Eide, Kabul

I said in an open meeting of the U.N. Security Council: "We can no longer allow the warlords and power brokers of the past, and their policy of fragmentation, to contaminate the institutions of the future." At a Nov. 5 news conference in Kabul, I said: "The first important element [of a post-election agenda] will be of course the formation of the new government. It should be composed of competent, reform-oriented personalities that can implement a reform agenda." - My role in promoting reform in Afghanistan
