KABUL (Pajhwok): President Ashraf Ghani Ahmadzai on Friday said he was in no hurry to form his Cabinet, calling his recent visits to China and Saudi Arabia as successful.

Ahmadzai was addressing a gathering of religious leaders, acting ministers, lawmakers, tribal elders and influential figures at the Presidential Palace after Friday’s prayers.

A statement from the Presidential Palace said the president briefed the gathering about his visits to China and Saudi Arabia and said the visits had gone well and would benefit the Afghans.
