Afghan general called "betrayal" US plans to replace Kalashnikovs




Takat said Washington’s actions are "a betrayal and a crime against the people of Afghanistan."

During the war, we saw American weapons in the case - and it simply does not work. It can not be compared with the Russian
- he said in an interview with Sputnik

According to the general, the Afghan military has become accustomed to handling Ak-47, these machines "are in every Afghan family," especially in dangerous areas. Without them, many people simply can not defend themselves against terrorists, I'm sure Takat.



According to the representative of the Ministry of Defense of the country, General Davlat Vaziri, the Afghan military will continue to use Russian-made weapons.

When Russian weapons become useless, and their ammunition runs out, they will replace them with American ones. In the meantime, it works, we will use it

        Under the Americans, the number of weapons among the population decreased several times. 1 automatic machine per family is more accurate. Moreover, this applies to territories not controlled, or rather poorly controlled by the Americans.

          And in the basements, attics, gardens ... did not look ?!
          Such a people as Afghans (all nations), with such a history, are more likely to die than surrender their weapons ... especially since the surrender of weapons there means either slavery or death.

            You are not familiar with the situation in Afghanistan after the American invasion. Yes, at the beginning of the invasion, for example, residents of the village of Chamkani had several howitzers, half a dozen Stinger, almost every man had a rifle or AK-47. But at present there is 1 Kalashnikov per family. Americans bought the rest. Under the Communists, one worker could easily feed his family, now, if no one works abroad, you can die of starvation.

      Betrayal of whom? The United States is moving IS units to Afghanistan for war against both government troops and the Taliban. The United States will weaken both of them for the subsequent deployment of militants along the borders of the former USSR. The USA has no allies and friends. For them, enemies are everything, but in friends only their own interests.

    Dustiness, lack of real conditions for service, not trained personnel and American weapons? In reality, Afghanistan is losing its potential for the purchase of weapons from the United States. Of course, Afghans will not refuse supplies at the expense of the United States, but the century of American weapons in the hands of the Afghan is short.
