Karzai cabinet picks seen as aimed at consolidating power beyond his term


KABUL — Afghan President Hamid Karzai announced his choices for top government security posts Monday, part of a cabinet overhaul that some analysts said better positions him to extend his political influence after his tenure ends in 2014.:
The government rejected such speculation, calling the cabinet reshuffling part of a normal process, but Karzai’s choices are another signal to parliamentary opposition figures that he would find ways to consolidate power with or without their approval.

Karzai, Afghanistan’s ruler since the ouster of the Taliban in 2001, is under mounting domestic and international pressure to reform his administration, which has been widely criticized for corruption and poor governance. He also faces multiple security challenges, including a reinvigorated insurgency, as U.S. combat troops begin their exit ahead of a 2014 withdrawal deadline.

Karzai’s choice to be his new defense minister is former interior minister Bismillah Khan Mohammadi, a 10-year veteran of his administration whom lawmakers unseated in August.
