“There are spoilers; there are spoilers within Afghanistan, there are elements that have benefited from the war economy.”
“People have made billions and there are elements outside Afghanistan who would want Afghanistan to remain unstable because they use Afghan soil for their national objectives so recognizing that there are spoilers,” Qureshi said.
