Ashraf Ghani declared winner in Afghan elections, Abdullah rejects

Hawa Alam Nuristani (C, Front), head of Afghanistan's election commission, leaves for a press conference in Kabul, capital of Afghanistan, on Feb. 18, 2020. Afghanistan's election commission on Tuesday announced the final results of Sept. 28 presidential polls and declared incumbent President Mohammad Ashraf Ghani as the winner. Ghani's rival and chief executive of his National Unity Government Abdullah Abdullah stood the second. However, Abdullah rejected the outcome as "unfair" and said he is the winner of the election and deserves to form government. (Photo by Rahmatullah Alizadah/Xinhua)
