ИЗОБРАЖЕНИЕ
Hamid Karzai (born December 24, 1957) is an Afghan politician who was the President of Afghanistan from December 22, 2001 to September 29, 2014, originally as an interim leader and then as President for almost ten years, from December 7, 2004 to 2014. He comes from a politically active family; Karzai's father, uncle and grandfather were all active in Afghan politics and government. Karzai and his father before him, Abdul Ahad Karzai, were each head of the Popalzai tribe of the Durrani tribal confederation.
After the 2017 Nangarhar airstrike, Karzai called the current president Ashraf Ghani a traitor. In October 2017 Karzai stated that the U.S. uses the Islamic State (IS) extremist group as a tool in Afghanistan, aimed at destabilizing the whole region, urging the international community, in his words, to convince the U.S. that it needs to actually fight terrorism.
