'''[[Perdana Menteri]] [[Afghanistan]]''' adalah jabatan yang telah dihapuskan di dalam pemerintahan Afganistan saat ini.
<!--The position was created in [[1927]], and was appointed by the [[monarch|king]], mostly as an advisor, until the end of the monarchy in [[1973]]. During the Communist Era, the position was the [[head of government]].
== Constitutions of 1923 and 1963 ==
The '''Chairman of the Council of Ministers''' was not headed by the Prime Minister, but the King. Only during his absence was the Premier the acting Chairman of the Council.
Until [[1963]], the King always appointed one of his relatives as Prime Ministers. The King also had the power to dismiss or transfer the Prime Minister.
This was changed, stating that the Head of the Afghan Government was the Prime Minister, and that the government consisted of its Ministers. It was the first time that the King did not play an important role in the Government, leaving it to an elected authority. However, it also stated that they cannot engage in any other profession during their tenure of office.
The Constitution of 1963 also granted the Prime Minister the power to summon the '''Electoral College''' in case of the death of the King. The Prime Minister only answered to the [[Wolesi Jirga]] about the ''General Policy'' of the Government, and individually for their prescribed duties.
== The Saur Revolution (1978 - 1992) ==
In April [[1978]], [[Mohammed Daoud Khan]] was killed during a [[communist]] coup that started the ''Saur Revolution''. The Communist government revived the office of Prime Minister that year, and it remained throughout the reign of the Communist and post-Communist governments.
The President was in charge of the appointment of the Prime Minister, who in turn appointed the [[Council of Ministers]]. The Council's stated purpose was to formulate and implement domestic and foreign policies, to formulate economic development plans and state budgets, and to ensure public order.
Under the Constitution of 1987, the President was required to appoint the Prime Minister in order to form the Government. The Prime Minister had the power to dissolve the government. Several Afghan Presidents during the [[Democratic Republic of Afghanistan]] era were also appointed Prime Minister. With the [[Soviet invasion of Afghanistan]], the Prime Minister was no longer in charge of the government. The General Secretary of the [[People's Democratic Party of Afghanistan|PDPA]] or the Director of the [[KHAD]] exercised greater power.
== The Islamic Republic (1992-present) ==
After the collapse of [[Mohammad Najibullah]]'s Presidency, a transitional state was created. Thus, the office of '''Prime Minister''' once again played an important role in the history of the nation.
Also, the Constitution of 1990 established that only Afghan-born citizens are eligible to hold the office, something that was not specified in the previous documents.
There was constant friction between the President and the Premier during this period. The State had collapsed and there was not an effective central Government from 1992 until 1996. Thus, the position became ''de facto'' ceremonial, with little power in what was left of the Government.
The title was abolished when the [[Taliban]] captured [[Kabul]] in [[1996]] and proclaimed the '''Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan'''. The Deputy Leader of the Taliban was often known as the Prime Minister throughout its rule. With the death of Rabbani in [[2001]], the Taliban decided not to revive the office.
Until August [[1997]], the government which the Taliban had ousted, which remained in rebellion until the end of the Taliban in [[2001]], had a Prime Minister in the government, but the position was abolished.
The current president of Afghanistan, [[Hamid Karzai]] was sometimes called the prime minister by the international media during the first years of his presidency.-->
