The Ahmad Shah Massoud Foundation endorsed front-running presidential candidate Abdullah Abdullah in Kabul on Monday.
Speaking at the event was head of the Massoud Foundation, Ahmad Wali Massoud, who said that the foundation will work with Dr. Abdullah and his team to improve the situation of Afghanistan.
“We will work together to advance the situation of Afghanistan; we will try together,” Massoud said.
Dr. Abdullah took the stage after the announcement and asked that the people vote on Saturday to strive for democracy in Afghanistan.
The foundation was established in 2003 in honor of the late Ahmad Shah Massoud who is known to Afghanistan as a national hero.
He was the central leader of the Northern Alliance that was in resistance against the Soviet occupation and the emergence of the Taliban.
The foundation is a non-profit organization that serves to build the country in several areas such as education, health, culture and much more.
