KANDAHAR (Pajhwok): The police chief for southern Kandahar province on Sunday said recent Taliban’s advancement resulted from America’s previous policy that focused only on Al-Qaeda.
Gen. Abdur Raziq told a press conference in Kandahar City, the provincial capital, that the Taliban advanced in recent past due to former US president Barack Obama’s policy of withdrawing most of the forces from Afghanistan after 2014.
He said foreign troops beyond 2014 mainly focused on targeting Al-Qaeda . . .
