Afridi Slams Afghanistan Over Pakistan Ties
Former Pakistan captain Shahid Afridi has accused Afghanistan of forgetting the “favors” his country extended and criticised its leaders for warming up to India. He said Pakistan had stood by Afghanistan during difficult times but now sees shifting allegiances.
Claims of Past Support
Afridi pointed to Pakistan’s assistance to Afghan refugees over decades and said the “brotherhood” was being ignored. He suggested that Afghan support was now leaning toward India, which he described as “regrettable.”
Diplomatic Context
His remarks come amid growing diplomatic and security tensions between Pakistan and Afghanistan. Analysts view the statement as part of the broader strain in relations, including border issues and changing regional alliances.
