As the country now turns a new leaf, our ambition is to give hope to each and every Afghan.

Once the Afghan people vote and they choose their President with direct, secret ballot from all over the country, there will be a lot of difference in this country and a lot of legitimate power to flow with implementation.

If it is terrorism, if it is war on terror, then the Afghan people will join you on terror.

We as the Afghan people and government are willing to help Pakistan work for peace in Afghanistan and work for peace in Pakistan, together.

The majority of the Afghan people support a strategic partnership with the United States.

Afghanistan has moved forward and Afghanistan will defend itself. And the progress that we have achieved, the Afghan people will not allow it to be put back or reversed.
