Imran Khan said, ‘By the time America understood that there could be no military solution to the problem of Afghanistan, it was too late. At one time, America had more than 10,000 soldiers in Afghanistan. In the true sense, this was the time when America should have made a deal with the Taliban.

Islamabad. The influence of the terrorist organization Taliban in Afghanistan is increasing. The situation is going from bad to worse. Meanwhile, Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan has blamed America for the current situation in Afghanistan. Imran Khan said, ‘The US did not handle the Taliban properly. Taliban are ordinary citizens, they are not in any military dress. America did not understand this. The US messed everything up there.
Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan said these things in an interview given to American news channel PBS journalist Judy Woodruff. This interview was broadcast in Pakistan on Tuesday night. Imran Khan said, ‘The problem of Afghanistan cannot be solved through the army. I have been saying this from the beginning, but I have never been heard. On the contrary, I was addressed as Taliban Khan and anti-American.
From America’s mistakes
Imran Khan said, “America had when it can not be removed if deemed solved militarily in Afghanistan, too late by then. At one time, America had more than 10,000 soldiers in Afghanistan. In the true sense, this was the time when America should have made a deal with the Taliban. Pakistan’s PM said, ‘A political settlement is better for the future of Afghanistan. This is also the only way. The truth is that now the Taliban will be involved in the government of Afghanistan.
The allegation of funding the Taliban is wrong
Imran Khan dismissed the allegations of the Taliban getting funding from Pakistan. He said, ‘This is a completely false allegation. When Al Qaeda attacked the World Trade Center, not a single Pakistani citizen was involved in it. At that time no Taliban fighter was in Pakistan. More than 70 thousand Pakistani civilians have died in the war between America and the Taliban. Pakistan has suffered a loss of $ 150 billion due to the ongoing war in Afghanistan.
Pakistan will also be affected
The PM of Pakistan said, ‘If Afghanistan moves towards civil war, then it will also affect Pakistan. The refugee problem will arise in front of our country. There are already more than 3 million Afghan refugees in Pakistan. We will have trouble if their number increases, the economic condition of our country is not such that refugees can face the problem.
