Afghan President Unveils Unity Cabinet

Afghanistan President Ashraf Ghani has named the 25 ministers who will form his unity cabinet.
 
The announcement, made more than three months after he was sworn in, still needs to be approved by parliament. 
 
It follows a visit by NATO's top military commander in Europe, General Phillip Breedlove, who was in Afghanistan to witness the transition of the international mission into one of continued training, advice and assistance involving 12,000 troops.
