Pervez Musharraf has called for an end to the backing of militant “proxies” in Afghanistan, in an interview to ‘The Guardian’ on Friday.
According to a report published in The Guardian, Musharraf admitted that when he was in power, Pakistan sought to undermine the government of former Afghan president Hamid Karzai because Karzai had “helped India stab Pakistan in the back”.
Like many soldiers, he is convinced that India, through its Research and Analysis Wing (RAW), backs regional separatists in an effort to break up Pakistan. “The RAW of India, the ISI of Pakistan have always been fighting against each other since our independence. That is how it continued, it continues now also.
“It must stop, but it can only stop when leaderships on both sides show the will to resolve disputes and stop confrontation in favour of compromise and accommodation.”
Musharraf has previously been accused of sheltering and supporting the Taliban after 2001.
Musharraf said Pakistani spies in the Inter-Services Intelligence directorate (ISI) cultivated the Taliban after 2001 because Karzai’s government was dominated by non-Pashtuns, the country’s largest ethnic group, and officials who were thought to favour India.
Old soldiers never die, they just fade away but Musharraf refuses to do that.
Says the man who claimed he did not know that Osama bin Laden was being kept in a safe house in Abbottabad by his band of brothers!
Pakistan sought to undermine the government of former Afghan president Hamid Karzai because Karzai had “helped India stab Pakistan in the back”.
How did he help stab Pakistan in the back? By undermining the Talibans? By inviting Indians for his country's development? How? Please explain.
