Amrullah Saleh: We will never accept a clerical dictatorship in Afghanistan
Amrullah Saleh, who says he is the legitimate caretaker President of Afghanistan, says he will never accept a 'clerical dictatorship' in his country, but would be prepared to talk to the Taliban if they reject extremism. He demanded that the Taliban ask Afghans for their opinion about any future government, and said the country would not surrender to a group with massive human rights violations.
