Kabul : Former Afghan President Hamid Karzai demanded the immediate scrapping of a key accord signed between Pakistan’s ISI and Afghanistan spy agency to share intelligence, asking the unity government not to ink such deals which went against the country’s national interests.

 Expressing deep concern over the development, Karzai said the government should “immediately cancel” the Memorandum of Understanding between the Afghan Intelligence and Pakistan’s Military Intelligence – Inter Services Intelligence (ISI). Karzai, 57, issued a statement calling on unity government leaders to “immediately cancel” the agreement, Khaama Press reported. The statement further said that Karzai, who was in power for a decade since 2004, has also called on the leaders of the unity government to prevent signing such agreements which are against the national interests of the country.
