Aren't we a sovereign country? asks ex-Afghan Prez
Former Afghan President Hamid Karzai has criticised US President Barack Obama for authorising US troops to launch counter-insurgency attacks in Afghanistan asking, "Aren't we a sovereign country?" This contradicts President Ashraf Ghani's agenda of welcoming US political and military support. Afghanistan-US relation should be a "partnership", not a "master-and-slave relationship", Karzai added.
