(AP) - An Afghan man reads a newspaper showing a picture of Afghan President Hamid Karzai in Jalalabad, Nangarhar province, east of Kabul, Afghanistan on Saturday, Nov. 7, 2009. Afghanistan's Foreign Ministry says that the top U.N. official in the country went beyond his authority by giving instructions on how to rid the government of corruption and warlords. It was strongest indication yet that the Karzai administration will resist prescriptions on how to rein in corruption or regional power brokers who often wield more power than the government.
