The former president of Afghanistan, Hamid Karzai, has described the Taliban as his “brothers”, saying he had held productive meetings with the country’s new rulers and discussed the issues confronting the country.
“I see the Taliban very much as brothers and I see all others Afghans as brothers,” he told the BBC in an exclusive interview.
Karzai said during his time in office, he would call the Taliban his brothers and “it was exactly with the same purpose in mind that I called them brothers”.
