Afghan FM continues volley of allegations

KABUL—Afghan Foreign Minister Dr. Rangin Dadfar Spanta has strongly criticized President General Pervez Musharraf remarks about Hamid Karzai and Afghanistan and termed Musharraf as an inexperienced politician.
He stated this reaction over President Musharraf's remarks that President Hamid Karzai did not know about his country's situation.
Earlier, during his stay in the US, President Musharraf criticized Afghan President and said in undiplomatic language that Karzai was not playing his role in war against terrorism. Karzai did not know any thing about current situation, he said.
Dr Spanta while rejected the President's remarks said that Pakistan was too young as historically.
Former Afghan Foreign Minister Dr. Abdullah Abdullah said that President Musharraf's remarks proved that he could interfere in the internal affairs of Afghanistan and wanted to defend his rule in Pakistan.
He pointed out that Pakistan where terrorist centers are located could play an important role in war against terrorism. He said that President Musharraf in his book has admitted that Pakistan took part in war against terrorism under pressure of the US and western countries.
Dr. Abdullah suggested that Afghanistan should give response to President Musharraf's remarks.
He further said that Pakistan has been openly interfering in the internal affairs of Afghanistan since the formation of President Karzai's government. He said that Pakistan's efforts were continuing to strengthen Taliban against the government. Dr. Spanta urged the world community to pressurize the Pakistan to take serious steps in war on terror. —Agencies
