Afghan President Ashraf Ghani’s office term extended until delayed presidential elections take place

Afghanistan's President Ashraf Ghani attends a meeting with US Vice President Mike Pence during the annual Munich Security Conference in Munich, Germany, February 16, 2019.

Presidential elections were initially slated for April 20, but Afghan election officials were unprepared for a new nationwide poll so soon after October parliamentary elections. "The Afghan supreme court has extended the service term of President Ghani until the re-election of a new president," the court said in a statement.

The delayed elections come as the US tries to negotiate a peace deal with the Taliban, and some had speculated the polls were being deliberately stalled to create more space for those talks.

Taliban team at Afghan peace talks in Qatar to include women: spokesmanWomen will be included for the first time in the Taliban delegation to talks thi... Cool, he says skeptically. How can anyone really tell? A silent pile of rags is gender neutral Actually there probably won't be any women representing the Taliban and even if there is a token brought in for propaganda, that in no way means the Taliban will recognize any of the rights women have gained over the past 18 years. Taliban is like ISIS.
