Afghanistan interim government: Dostum sounds discordant note

Dostum, one of the most influential commanders of the Northern Alliance, said he would boycott the interim government and would not enter Kabul till a permanent government was in place.

He had insisted on being given the foreign minister's portfolio but was, instead, offered the ministries of mining, industry and agriculture.

"It is humiliating," he said.

He refused to allow the government to use the oil and gas resources in the provinces under his control.
