· 1 min read · 289 views

KABUL (Pajhwok): The United States has committed massive corruption in Afghanistan, alleges former president Hamid Karzai.

In an interview published on Tuesday, the long-serving ex-president took full responsibility for the corruption and bribes in the delivery of services in his country.

“But the big contracts, big corruption, in hundreds of millions of dollars or millions of dollars, was clearly a United States of America thing,” he commented.

Speaking to The Washington Post, he assailed the US for Afghanistan’s plight, saying the war in Afghanistan “was not our war”.

He was not a US partner in the war . . .
