Since his London speech, Karzai has actively opposed efforts to attack official corruption, sought to appoint warlords to his cabinet, failed to promote civil society, and weakened processes aimed at increasing the representation of women in parliament.
自从伦敦讲话之后，卡尔扎伊积极反对反腐行动，把军阀引入内阁中，无法推动公民社会的建设，反对增加妇女在议会中比例的活动。更有甚者， 2 月 13 日，卡尔扎伊颁布法令，让自己任命所有选举监督委员会成员。这显然是为了强化裙带关系，以便在未来的选举中打压反对势力，这清楚地表明他对提高政府诚信视为儿戏。
