Former Afghanistan Vice President Amrullah Saleh has slammed Pakistan once again for using his country to strategic and financial gains. Saleh, who fled the country following August 15 takeover by the Taliban, said Pakistan has been using Afghanistan to receive billions of dollars from the world on one pretext or another.

This is not for the first time that Saleh has raised fingers on Pakistan's clandestine role in creating trouble in Afghanistan.

Saleh underlined that the Taliban were under pressure in Afghanistan despite the over 20-year presence of international troops in the country as they were receiving help from Pakistan.
"It’s very clear that the Taliban were never under pressure; they used Pakistan as their support base. Not sanctuaries, the whole of Pakistan was at the service of Taliban," Saleh had said.
