Karzai: The United States is refusing to accept responsibility for the defeat in Afghanistan
The former president of Afghanistan Hamid Karzai said that the United States has failed in all its stated goals in Afghanistan, including the fight against terrorism, and is shirking its responsibility.
Former Afghan President Hamid Karzai said: “The United States came to Afghanistan with two goals: to fight extremism and ensure stability, but after 20 years, it has been losing both of these goals and is trying to bear the burden of this war on the people.” Afghan throw.
Speaking to the Chinese media, the Global Times, he added that the United States and its allies could not take care of their responsibilities in Afghanistan.
Karzai told the AP on June 20 that the US’ legacy is a war-ravaged nation in “total disgrace and disaster.” “We recognize as Afghans all our failures, but what about the bigger forces and powers who came here for exactly that purpose? Where are they leaving us now?” he asked and answered: “In total disgrace and disaster.”
He told the Global Times that the “failure by the US and its allies is now their responsibility to explain to the Afghan people,” and the Afghan people “would like the US to leave Afghanistan responsibly.”
Since the US announced its complete withdrawal plan from war-torn Afghanistan by September, Afghanistan has witnessed a surge in violence amid the US troops’ pullout from the region. Karzai said to eradicate terrorist attacks on Afghanistan’s soil, what is needed is the understanding and cooperation of neighbors and major global powers. He said China can play a very significant role, especially “trying for the betterment of relations between Afghanistan and Pakistan and for working toward a relationship between the two countries” that is based on “civilized interaction.”
Karzai spoke highly of China’s role as “a very constructive player for peace and stability of Afghanistan.” He said the Afghan people really want China to continue to contribute to Afghanistan’s peace by creating a platform of talks on its own initiative in Beijing and also for the joint exercise of Troika of China, Russia and Pakistan.
