“Events unfolded at a rapid pace. I wanted to negotiate with the Taliban for an inclusive government.”

In his first remarks since leaving Afghanistan, Ghani said in a Facebook post on Sunday that he was facing a “difficult choice” between an “armed Taliban” who wanted to enter Rashtrapati Bhavan or “beloved”. Leaving the country to which I had dedicated my life to protect the last 20 years”.

“If there were still countless countrymen who were martyred and faced the destruction and destruction of the city of Kabul, the result would have been a great humanitarian disaster in this city of sixty million.

A day later, photos of the former vice-president began to surface on social media with his former mentor and son of renowned anti-Taliban fighter Ahmed Shah Masood in Panjshir – a mountainous insurgency in the Hindu Kush.
