KABUL: Former president of Afghanistan Hamid Karzai took to the Twitter featuring himself with three little girls saying: “I am here in Kabul with my girls and I ask the Taliban to provide security and safety to the people”.
Pakistan government will ponder over the development in a rendezvous on Monday 16th of August. On Sunday 15th of August, 2021 Pakistani Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi talked to his British counterpart Dominic Raab, Foreign Secretary & First Secretary of State, by means of phone to discuss the fast changing scenario in Afghani. Dominic Raab stated via Twitter: “Shared my deep concerns about the future for Afghanistan with FM Qureshi. Agreed it is critical that the international community is united in telling the Taliban that the violence must end and human rights must be protected.”
Meanwhile, UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson has called Cobra (an Emergency Response Committee involving ministers, civil servants and other concerned people relevant to the subject under discussion) meeting Sunday 15th of August, 2021 to discuss the aggravating state-of-affairs here. Earlier, Afghan Interior Ministry here stated that Taliban fighters, who did not meet much resistance from the America-trained Army, were entering the Capital from all sides. According to sources privy to NPTV, an agreement has been signed between Taliban leaders and President Ashraf Ghani Administration after a clandestine dialogue held in the presidential palace, refereed by Abdullah Abdullah.
The fighters have been instructed by Taliban leaders to refrain from any violence and not to stop anybody who wants to leave. US troops continued evacuating the Embassy staff. According to eyewitnesses as helicopters lifted personnel from US embassy, decoy flares were shot in the air as aerial infrared countermeasure to counter an infra-red heat-seeking SAM or A2A missile. US Embassy happens to harbor lists of people who they believe should be taken out of Afghanistan. 600 British troops have also been deployed to facilitate the safe departure of UK nationals as well as others. A number of helicopters landed at the US Embassy. However, Russia has proclaimed it was not calling its Envoy back to Moscow.
Cynics go haywire watching how Kabul fell sans any fight and wonder where those American billions of dollars were spent? The amount was meant to be utilized to raise an army. But what kind of an army did the US form? However, President Joe Biden seems content with the state-of-affairs as he defends his decision apropos evacuation by saying he could not justify endless American presence in Afghanistan. Savants at the helm of affairs insinuate that the ‘script’ was written as such and things were supposed to happen the way it is happening. It seems that the people of Afghanistan were tired of corruption and American puppets ruling them. The security forces too were dependent on the American firepower. But Afghans were not willing to lay their lives for the likes of Ashraf Ghani who left the ship as soon as the turmoil commenced.
