I don't blame him for leaving. But saying "I will die defending this country" and then not doing it, just makes you question how truthful he is in general.
He failed to do like Zelenskyy does (but the fall of Kabul happened 6 months before the _special military--_ f**k that its invasion; pure & simple, occurred in Ukraine)
Don't blame him for leaving? In situations like those, the country needs their leader to lead its people and defend their homeland. Yet he ran away like a cowardly dog. Look at Zelenskyy, even when Russia is in full scale invasion of his country, he does not run away.

@Immabouttobe Bannedagain12 how he gonna resist when all high rank officers in military and police force Deserted entire Kabul garrison is in Panic no more generals to give orders they all fled with no single shots there are many comparing it in Fall of Saigon I disagree ARVN forces fought till April 29 ,1975 and many ARVN generals have been captured but with Afghan National Army no single ANA generals was been Captured in the day Kabul falls because they all fled in the sights of Taliban so in the case of Former Afghan President what will be his Options.
As an Afghan, there are my questions: Who was behind the blitzkrieg takeover of provinces (by the Taliban) in the months leading to the collapse? Why didn't he leave his power to other Afghan rulers, when he was asked countless times, during the peace talk? (Given that he ran away later anyways and it would have helped the peace talk) Why didn't he allow the people to get armed and resist, despite countless calls from the people all over the Afghanistan? Is his humiliation (a doubtful assumption) more important than the humiliation that the people went through after his flight? Lastly, if he had stayed, chaos wouldn't have been as big during the collapse. He was just a coward with no power, hence no reason to stay.
From all i know, in my opinion, he cannot compare with the ukrainian president. He blame that he lost support of his peoples, but this is the result of being corrupt. The fact that president Zelenski have men and wemen wiling to fight by his side, tells a lot about this man. Another problem with his clameing is about that he left because he was concerned about his honor of not being humiliated (in his opinion it was the most important) and i was expect he to invoque the reason of saveing lifes of his defenders and the avoidance of bloodsheed, but he didnt. In the end it is visible how hard is for him to denie the afirmation abut his escapeing whith all those money, how he became inchoerent and to be honest, who would risk to take that incredible sum of money in a helicopter, in the bank accounts era?
Are you out of your mind? Giving civilians weapons to resist? So you want to see a big civilian warfare? Afghanistan was already lost. It was time for change.
@@walid3207 when Taliban were taking over provinces despite the peace talks charade, civilians wanted to resist, just like Ukraine. Unfortunately, the coward Ghani with his crooked advisors didn't let them. And what do you mean by civil war? The Taliban have been killing the Afghans for more than 2 decades. Why fighting them is suddenly so bad, especially when the people don't want them as their rulers and that they came to power by force and guns, not any council or election or any other mechanism?
@@massi-faqiri there were certain people who did want to resist(NRF, Ahmad massood), but the overwhelming majority of people are just so tired of war and everything. There was no resistance.

Now Afghanistan is sanctioned and USA knows they are doing damage on the normal people. They were and are the biggest devil in this whole situation along with the previous Afghan government. You clearly dont understand that Ghani got fooled by other war lords and corrupt politicians. Did you even watch the video? So your solution was to create another war in Kabul?

Yes, as per Mr Ghani's account the Taliban had no opponents to counter them on ground and protect the President of Afganistan, in Kabul. That's pretty strange and very odd too!

👍 Great interview! I feel bad for him now, hearing his point of view. I'm glad he has the opportunity to explain his side and clarify things that have been misunderstood.
He is a deceiver, due to his corruption, fascism, arrogance during 7 years of his presidency he and cabinet members have made huge amount of corruption that is why we Afghans are suffering from his acts. Never think that he is a man of principles, he is an empty head with vast corruption background
You feel sympathy for him? Ha? He was a coward and crook that couldn’t lead his people since 2 decades of military support from the US. He had no commanders to protect him and the people, so it means he is a poor leader for the last 2 decades. Also, let me remind you that he made off with millions, while all his people are under Taliban control. Don’t let these redemption interview cloud your judgment. Leaders are supposed be to be leaders. Look up the The Ukrainian President.
I dont blame the guy for leaving. He would've been beheaded and made an example of. I do, however, blame the Afghan army. They crumbled without a fight. Makes you wonder.
He is not !!!!!! he was a fascist working against the republic which he was ruling like a king, now he say I could do nothing. He and his Lebanese wife stole enormous amount of money and fouled the west by portraying a progressive image of themselves. Shame Zaharia and the media for bidding the obvious
Well 50 years ago Afghanistan was a lot better off because they were self governed. Then about 40 something years ago almost they were having a war with the Soviets. Who stayed about 10 years. Then when the Soviets left the mujahideen which became the Taliban was in charge for a while. Until America went over stayed 20 years then left and now the Taliban is in charge again. So the cycle is repeating itself.
He saved his life, safety is first then country. If alive will come back to. Show is over. Eat drink and be merry for tomorrow you may die. Be kind and enjoy your life as you enjoy it before. protect yourself from the cancer by regular check up.

I understand now why he left. When he made that statement about defending til his death I don’t think he realized that his entire defense and administrative apparatus would abandon the country before he could make that effort. If he was a general it would be different, but he’s not a fighter he’s a politician. Nothing he can do by himself

No, he's a coward. When Trump forced him to release the ferocious Taliban prisoners, he could say no or resign to protest. In this case, he would've warned the Afghanistan people. Contrarily, this coward didn't and accumulated money in secret bank accounts. He had planned for months to escape.

I like the way he speaks. No exaggerating, dramatising. Simple and reasonable. Seems like a good man. It"s not his fault. I blame both Trump and Biden for what happened in Afghanistan.Wishing him all the best.
He was remembering what happened to the last president the last time the Taliban took over. He had his man parts removed from his still living body and was cut up into little pieces. I can't say I blame him but he's talking the big talk. There is nothing he can do about Afghanistan.
@@DaftPunkSkittle Former President of the Communist Afghanistan Mohammad Najibullah. He was captured by the Taliban and was tortured and murdered. His body was hung from a post to rot.
@@DaftPunkSkittle Google Mohammad Najibullah Ahmadzai. There is a long article about his history and so on. He has issues other than the Taliban but basically he was hiding in the UN compound in Sept, 1996. The Taliban came for him, tortured him and also his brother and hung there bodies from light poles to show that there was a new game in town. This was in Kabul. His whole body wasn't chopped up, just parts of it.
trump negotiated a "peace deal" with the taliban. It did not include the Afghan government. Why? With negotiations done under trump, Biden had to pull out troops. He was at least provided an additional few months. An opinion. Question remains:. Why wasn't the Afghan government included in the "peace deal" negotiations under trump?
Because they refused to sit down with the Taliban. The Trump administration was just being realistic. He knew that the Taliban had to be part of the equation knowing that they had more power over the Afghani people than the US picked Afghanistan president.
@@jillfeatherman5523 trump thought the taliban had been around for a thousand years. After russian invasion, the newly formed taliban tried to take over Afghanistan.
Why? Too many cooks spoil the soup. Trump was hoping a pull out would boost his chances of reelection so his only goal was getting it done. Trump was POTUS for 10 more month after the deal and in that time didn't get any of our allies out or any military material. How always intended to cut and run leaving allies to fend for themselves just like what he did to the Kurds.

Mohammad Najibullah Ahmadzai, commonly known as Dr. Najib, was an Afghan politician who served as the General Secretary of the People's Democratic Party of Afghanistan, the leader of the one-party ruling Democratic Republic of Afghanistan from 1986 to 1992 and as well as the President of Afghanistan from 1987 until his resignation in April 1992, shortly after which the mujahideen took over Kabul. After a failed attempt to flee to India, Najibullah remained in Kabul. He lived in the United Nations headquarters until his assassination by the Taliban..

Great Interview! I totally understand his point of View. Its True there is a Huge difference between Ukraine and Afghanistan in 2021! Almost his entire Government and USA had basically given up already. There were approximately only 2000 US forces left.
Oh Man. the US has never given up Afghanistan because the US is not a savior for Afghanistan. The US just bombed Afghanistan into a shithole in the first place and stole its foreign reserve in the end.
No one was going to kill him and he knew that very well. Don't fall for his words. His time is up, he stay gone. We have a new independent Afghan govt which is hardworking, ethical and not corrupt criminals. The US sanctions and the US theft of our Afghan assets is making it hard for our new govt to rebuild the economy and country faster...the US expected them to fail but they didn't. Today is our 1yr Freedom Day from Foreign occupation and a very happy day for us!
By not staying and engaging in a war he knew they were going to lose, he avoided a civil war, and death of thousands of Afghans. That's the best decision he could've made as the president. Those who think he should've stayed and fought, clearly have never lived through a civil war and have no idea how incredibly brutal and destructive it is for a country and its people.
@@nfspbarrister5681 That's a very applicable thing to that clown in command in Ukraine! For the good of Ukraine, Zelenskyy should just resign before eventually Ukrainians will be fed up and have him court martialed! He's not a martyr at all!
Can't blame him for leaving and his situation is not even comparable to Zelensky, this man did not have his army or the people of his country on his side to fight with him and support him, what good would it have done if he had stayed except him being killed or tortured in the most brutal way? As long as the Taliban still exist, Afghanistan is a lost cause.
There's lot of corruption within the govt. Why didn't he gain the support of his people and military? Funding (us tax $) was misused for personal gains, soldiers did not get paid weapons were sold out to the enemies from within..the people did not want democracy they wanted taliban do you really think this is a just cause for Americans to die for? There are countries that have success with American occupation. It requires the people to work hard and to strive to make it happen.. south Korea taiwan and Japan are some countries
@Johnny Michael but they fight together against soviet before , but afghan is not like other country , they got more than 5 group like Al Qaeda , ISIS K , Taliban and other . So its hard for afghan people some people choose taliban some choose government , its not like ukraine where only got one army
I hated watching Karzai, the previous president dressed up in a golden robe while all the help from NATO was being squandrred… this last guy got Afghanistan when it wad already lost.
karzai joined the taliban in all but name the same day ghani fled the country, and now karzai functions as an international spokesperson (and probably diplomat) of the taliban.
@@Ass_of_Amalek Well, Trump did legitimize the Taliban as the leaders of Afghanistan when he agreed to excuse him from his meeting with the Taliban. There should have been far more uproar over it, but the world was distracted.
@@B_Bodziak I know. the trump administration withdrawal deal with the taliban was entirely a handover of the country to the taliban over the heads of the kabul government. the only condition for the withdrawal was that neither the taliban nor anybody else in afghanistan is allowed to attack the US now. the deal made no demands whatsoever regarding territorial ambitions, military aggression, human rights etc. from the taliban. and the deal was made at a time when the taliban were already winning even despite substantial NATO efforts, so at a point like that to tell the taliban "we're leaving if you just leave us alone, you can do whatever here in your country" obviously had to result in a taliban takeover, particularly after the kabul government was banned from the talks by the taliban as an open gesture of total disrespect (they said the reason was that the government had no legitimacy), and the US accepted that. I'm just somebody paying attention to news and I already knew that it was a handover as the deal was being worked out, so I find it really bizarre when people who should be international politics experts act like it wasn't clear, like the afghan republic could have had a chance. and I found it really disgusting when biden claimed that the taliban takeover happened because afghans opposing them weren't willing to fight, after afghan security forces had been getting killed at an average rate of 10 per day for the duration of the NATO occupation (70.000 in 20 years from a total population of 40 million, equivalent to california). the americans put the writing on the wall, and ultimately various people in power in afghanistan made deals with the taliban to not be on the obviously losing side (that's how most of the big cities fell without much fighting). the afghan security forces also had terrible supply levels (many units getting neither food nor ammunition or pay), and the fact that biden kept repeating that claim that there were 300.000 of them was just bizarre, since anybody who knew anything was saying that the real number was more like 100.000 or less, and that biden was mostly counting ghost soldiers that only ever existed on paper so that their superior officers could steal their fake salaries from the government. ultimately the US government said essentially "we expected the taliban takeover, just not this fast" - well guess what, everybody in afghanistan saw it coming too, and that's why it happened so fast, because many people prefer not to die for a lost cause! and the americans are the ones who decided that it was a lost cause, basically everybody else just took their work for it!

The fascinating thing here is the comments are full of opinions of those about a country and culture we have never lived nor experienced. My heart hurts for those who are oppressed and are unable to change it. Ukraine and Afghanistan are completely different places in history and support and military interests. Period.
The lens of our lives can never be removed, but there are plenty of people who have taken on another culture. There were a good amount of military and State officials who committed themselves to this task. It is not their fault they were ignored by Americans (and other nations) using "America First", transactional, short-term gains. That is a fault of letting the Executive have that much power, a 4yr term, trying to score points for an election, or to cement their legacy. The world knows it can wait out one of our presidencies. We have to debate the merits and make formal declarations through congress, but congress also has its faults that need to be cleared up to safeguard democracy. Lots of problems and one side has no real governing solutions.
Yes Afghanistan and Ukraine are two totally different situations. Can’t make an apples to apples comparison. Zelensky had a military that was willing to fight and loyal. The afghani military pretty much ran away. He had no military to stand and fight.
While international aid only slowly trickles to Ukraine, the Afghan army was fully equipped to NATO standards with Uncle Sam's finest American made gears. They just didn't want to fight. And Mohammad asraf ghani is a thief, a traitor and a coward
sure. he escape with golden parachute while afghan civilian desperately trying to get into US aircraft to escape and get crushed to death by the landing gear
It's because the military doesn't have the support they needed from their president. The funds given by the US was corrupted for selfish-interest. Zelensky on the otherhand didn't stole the funds given by the Allies, Instead he put all of it to the army and to the ukrainian civillians. If that's the case, you are really want defend the homeland knowing that you are well equipped and well fed.
The USA didn’t betrayed us or him we Afghans betrayed him and left him alone and escaped. It’s a big different between us and Ukrainian they are a united and one nation but we are escapee people. Instead of standing and defending our homeland we runaway and left the country for Taliban. We always expect others to come and protect us. No one cares for us and no one build our homeland. We ourselves must stand and build Afghanistan 🇦🇫 God bless my homeland
I don’t know how to say this without being disrespectful but I will do my absolute best. I was in Iraq. I saw this same mentality. I was angry about it because I didn’t want to be there for a group that didn’t want to fight for themselves.
@@StrilanGaming I'm Iraqi. Most of the army and police were anti-Americans. They signed up to get a salary and military training. At night, they switch clothes and become Mahdi army or any other resistance. They give intelligence to the resistance groups about your location and tactics. The right, patriotic thing for an Iraqi to do at that time was to fight the Americans, not fight with them. Those who were loyal to the American army were traitors. That is why most of them fled with the US in 2011 to avoid being killed for betraying Iraq. To make it more understandable for you, imagine Iraq invading and occupying the US. Then Iraq sets up a new American military. Would those Americans fighting in the new military be considered heroes or traitors?

Defending your country and risking death is one thing. Sitting on the couch waiting for the doors to be kicked down and brutally killed is a whole other thing entirely. Afghanistan had already fallen there was nothing this guy could've done.
@@wa3790 In what way could he have possibly have defended it? The government left, the army threw down 85 billion in arms given to them, the world just wanted out of that dustball. If he had stayed, the Taliban would have captured him and he would have either have been executed by Taliban leadership, slain by vengeful low level Taliban fighters, or would be forced to be a part of the new Taliban government. Any of these would have been a huge political victory for the Taliban. This is probably the best option he could have taken.
my thinking: 60percent: he is speaking the truth... 40 percent: he is lying... And as for people comparing Zelensky and ashraf.. Its completely a foolish thing to do. Afghanistan was not supported by anyone. The entire of Western world are standing with Ukraine..
Glad there’s someone else out there who is refusing to fall for his narrative. My mum was born in Afghanistan and i’ve heard all the stories. I know how things are there. He is sick for abandoning her fellow Afghans. He has NO RIGHT to say he will die defending Afghanistan and leave the second things get bad. He claims that he doesn’t want to be the one to sign over legitimacy to the Taliban but he never had to. They couldn’t force him. The only consequence of him not signing it would be his death. His death would’ve made him a martyr and sent him to Jannah but he didn’t care. He was selfish and put himself over his country.
The headline should read 'Afghan ex-president' because this dude is still Afghan but not longer president, rather than a current president who is not Afghan anymore. I wonder who writes these headlines.
Although English is not my first language, I have been learning and speaking English for almost 60 years. I think the headline should read “former Afghan president” or “Afghanistan’s ex-president” if you are to correct it. That said, I have no problem understanding what the headline is trying to say. As for your suggestion “Afghan ex-president”, it just doesn’t sound right to me.
He is the former Afghan president. The language you propose does not make clear that the country the Afghan person was president indeed was Afghanistan. “Ex” modified the term “Afghan president”. Not just the word Afghan
He did not entirely betrayed his people but it was his American allies that betrayed him since he nor his representative was present for Doha agreement.
Nice try with attempting to create a false narrative but the US spent a lot of money and wasted a lot of time to help a country that wouldn't fight for themselves. The Afghanistan army had the miltary power, training and weapons yet surrendered like cowards. No betrayal.
@@chroninite1234 After 20 years of training with high tech weapons and equipment, they were left to be slaughtered? Close to 300,000 Afghan soldiers surrendered to 30,000 Talibans. They were spineless...
@@angiesniche Exactly! At this point, Afghans have to take responsibility. Ukrainian soldiers are fighting a superpower and have already lost land the size half of Great Britain yet they keep fighting a battle that looks like in the end will be a losing battle. The Afghan men in particular have to take some responsibility. Many ran away only to turn around and become beggers.
The first high educated president in the World. We are proud of him. Ghani is in the heart of Afghans and all consider him a hero. Long life Ashraf Ghani.
We Afghans have lost more than 100,000 young beautiful soldiers in a war which really wasn’t ours but still we failed to prove our loyalty. All promises were just a piece of paper.
They bombed villagers, weddings, funerals, farmers in fields & night raid on their homes on purpose. They were running with hair & hunting with hounds from day 1. When the time was right, they call it out, to start a civil war & to destabilize the region. Thanks to Afghan leaders for making the right decision by letting Jihadis have it & avoid civil war in Afghanistan. Let them use each other.
Well what good would his death do anyway? The case would be different if he would have the support of the defense team. With the collapse of the latter, he would just be someone the Talibans would tortured to death. Ghani alone could never have given confidence to his people by staying back in the country. Why on earth would you want such a person to die? Because he said he would die?
Trump hamstrung us, like he does with a lot of things, but we didn't have to leave. That was Biden's decision. I'd rather have him than Trump, but that's not much of a choice.
Exactly so... except... that is this man's character. Pence stood with Trump in every moment except that one... he defend him prior to J6 & is not speaking to the committee now. Pence wears honor conveniently, this man wears it constantly. While the moments are similar, the men are unfortunately not. I wish Pence had a sliver of this man's integrity & consistency.
