Expressing her views during a debate on Republic TV, Shukria Barakzai, a former Kabul MP, who also served as Afghanistan’s ambassador to Norway, on Saturday accused Pakistan of supporting the Taliban's "barbarism." She said that the insurgent group they are supporting now will come for them in the future.

"Pakistan is blind not to see the atrocities in Afghanistan; shame on such a neighbour which supports Taliban barbarism. The monster they are supporting today will come for them tomorrow," Barakzai said.

Speaking about the current situation in Afghanistan, Barakzai said that many people have come to Kabul believing that the capital will not be captured. This should send a strong message to the Taliban that people don't want to live under their control, she said. The former political leader also hoped for nice constructive peace talks between Afghanistan and the insurgent group.

Former National Spokesman to Afghan President Ashraf Ghani, Najibullah Azad also accused Pakistan of funding the Taliban. "Pakistan's ex-leaders and current leaders have openly done fundraising for Taliban; Taliban terrorists get trained in Pakistan; Pakistan leaders have openly acknowledged it," he said.
