The leading German press agency quotes an analysis by AAN’s Jelena Bjelica of UNAMA’s latest Afghanistan (anti-)corruption report that found a slowdown in the fight against corruption:
Analyst Jelena Bjelica from the Kabul-based think tank Afghanistan Analysts Network sees a shift in the political priorities as a reason for the slowdown. “Obviously, there is a focus on the peace talks by both the international community and government. And it just seems that anti-corruption is totally not [the focus],” Bjelica told dpa. (…)
“It seems that there is no cooperation between the police, law enforcement, and prosecution,” Bjelica said.
