Afghan president says does not ‘trust’ US

Afghan President Hamid Karzai said he no longer “trusts” the United States, accusing the Americans of saying one thing and doing another in his troubled homeland.

According to AFP, visiting Afghan President emphasized in New Delhi on Saturday “I don’t trust them”.

Karzai’s statement to journalists came a day after he insisted he would not be “intimidated” into signing a security pact allowing US troops in Afghanistan to stay on after next year.
Karzai was speaking on the second day of a three-day visit to India during which the United States hopes New Delhi can persuade him to sign the troubled troop deal.
Karzai, who is due to stand down after elections next year, initially endorsed the so-called Bilateral Security Agreement, or BSA.
But he later said the agreement could only be signed after the presidential election in April, warning against a NATO presence if it just meant “more bombs and killings”.
