Wednesday marks the end of the 2014 Afghan presidential and provincial council campaigns. Presidential candidate Zalmai Rassoul presented his last campaign to the residents of Kabul.
Rassoul promised to fight corruption and compulsion elaborating that winning will not be possible through either.
“I would like to declare to those who use power and wealth to coerce their way thru things, that Afghanistan has changed," Rassoul said. "Today’s Afghanistan is not the extreme conservative Afghanistan, but rather a moderate Afghanistan.”
During his campaign speech, Rassoul said freedom of speech is among one of his important platforms. He also called onto the current government to stay impartial during elections.
Referring to the progress made since the fall of the Taliban Rassoul said, "These achievements are not enough; much more needs to be done."
The Kabul Residents' Council announced during Rassoul’s final campaign that they support presidential candidate Zalmai Rassoul.
