Pakistan not 'backing efforts for negotiation' with Taliban: Karzai
By AFP
Published: December 4, 2011
BONN, GERMANY: Afghan President Hamid Karzai has accused Pakistan, which is boycotting the international Bonn conference on Afghanistan, of sabotaging all negotiations with the Taliban.
“Up until now, they have sadly refused to back efforts for negotiations with the Taliban,” Karzai told Der Spiegel weekly in comments reported in German and due to be published on Monday.
The Bonn meeting will seek to chart a course for Afghanistan after the NATO withdrawal, but a boycott by Pakistan has dealt a stinging blow to hopes for a roadmap.
Pakistan is seen as vital to any prospect of stability in the war-ravaged country a decade after US-led forces ousted the Taliban, which had offered safe harbour to al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden.
But Islamabad pulled out after the killing of 24 soldiers in NATO air strikes on two Pakistani posts a week ago, although sources close to the German foreign ministry said it would be kept informed of progress at the conference.
Karzai also appealed for continued aid to his war-ravaged nation after 2014 – when NATO troops are due to pull out.
Stressing that Afghanistan will be “more than ever on the frontline,” he said: “If we fail in this war, which threatens all of us, it will mean a return to the situation before 9/11.”
The Afghan leader conceded that “sadly we have not been able to provide security and stability to all Afghans, this is our greatest failure.”
Afghan Foreign Minister Zalmai Rasoul appealed on Saturday for international support for his country after NATO troops pull out.
“After 2014, we will continue to need long-term support from our friends in the international community,” Rasoul said at a discussion forum in Bonn.
His German counterpart Guido Westerwelle vowed at the forum that the world would not abandon Afghanistan, while also stressing the importance of the role of women in the county, where they currently face major discrimination.
Regret over Pakistan’s boycott
In an interview to appear in Sunday’s Frankfurter Allgemeine Sonntagszeitung, Westerwelle again voiced his regret over the Pakistani boycott of the conference, which will gather delegates from 100 nations.
“Pakistan has more to gain from a stable and peaceful Afghanistan than any of its neighbours,” he said.

Karzai, you need to STFU

 

[Secur]

O' ungrateful ruler of the presidential palace of Kabul , thou shalt always complain because you cant do jack *** now ... Why asking the so called " supporters of terrorists " for help now ? ... Ask your ally with which you have a strategic pact at the moment ...
Without Pakistani help , kiss a melancholic good bye to the dreams of stable , peaceful Afghanistan ...
I wish every foreign minister a nice vacation trip in Germany to a meaningless conference ...

Translation: We're NATO puppets and everyone knows it. If you want us to keep doing your bidding, you've got to protect us from our people.

Wait wait wait Mr.Karzai........Was it not the Pakistanis who first suggested to bring the Taliban on to the table many years ago and since then have stood fast with that view while during all that time the world, including you, said that that was not just a bad idea but that Pakistan was saying all that only because we were in kahoots with the Taliban? You try to play around with us, you get the stick and then you start crying. Stop crying please we already know how pathetic you are.

And Mr.Westerwelle “Afghanistan (and the ISAF) has the most to gain from a stable and peaceful relationship with Pakistan and the most to loose from an unstable and tense relationship with Pakistan than any of the other so called 'players' youre propping here and there,” so please do whats best for you i.e. behave yourself you nincompoop.

One line......The decision to boycott Bonn conference is having a great impact and the stake holders(read the united west) are feeling the heat!

The Bonn conference would not have yielded much.

What the US wants, it gets , conference or no conference.
