Coming down heavily on Pakistan for supporting ISIS, former Afghan president Hamid Karzai today said the terrorists cannot be divided into categories of acceptable or not-acceptable as they are all bad.
"When they cause harm to people, to citizens, to society, they are bad and this is how you should treat them," he told ANI in an exclusive conversation.
Karzai, who was the president of Afghanistan from 2001-2014, also agreed with the fact that Pakistan was supporting the ISIS.
"We have no doubt about that. We have evidence, information coming to us from our population that deals the case," he said.
When asked whether the Indian military has any role in Afghanistan, he said, "I see a great role for India in Afghanistan. India has already been at the forefront of Afghanistan and to Afghanistan people in infrastructure, education, development, building of institutions of democracy and all of that.
