Fazel Mahmood Fazly, the former head of the Administrative Office of the President, Islamic Republic of Afghanistan, stated that the Taliban are a heavy burden on the Afghan people, and the real victims of this pressure are Afghans, not foreigners.
He added that foreigners engage with the Taliban for their short-term interests, and one cannot expect serious opposition from them.
Referring to recent remarks by Kamala Harris and Donald Trump, Fazly said that labeling the Taliban as terrorists and discussing the annulment of the Doha Agreement are merely part of political theater.
He emphasized that Afghans must focus on their national capacities and resolve to free themselves from the Taliban’s pressure.
