Khaama Press: Former Afghan President Hamid Karzai has said Afghanistan has never accepted Durand Line as border between Afghanistan and Pakistan and will never accept it in the future. In an interview with BBC Urdu, Karzai termed the formation of Durand Line a ‘result of British imperialism’ in the region. “When Pakistan came into being in 1947, they received it this way, so we are not blaming them but Durand Line is a blow which no Afghan can ever forget. We do not accept this border but will not fight over this issue,” Karzai added. Click here to read more (external link).
