Interview: Abdullah On Prisoner Releases, Peace and Foreign Policy --- "The release of thousands of criminals and their presence and continued criminal activities in society would undermine the morale of the Afghan forces in their fight against terrorism," Abdullah said. -- The Karzai government has pushed an increasingly conciliatory tact with the Taliban this year, perhaps looking to get a ceasefire deal in motion before the elections in April, or the NATO troop withdraw deadline at the end of next year. But the government has come under fire as the Taliban has repeatedly rebuffed overtures for negotiations and continued its insurgent campaign unflinchingly. - "Unfortunately, there has been no balance in the foreign policy of Afghanistan in the past, and it is very important to solve this issue," Abdullah said. "So far, we don't have a clear definition of friends and enemies, neighboring countries have a right to be concerned." - To watch the full interview with Abdullah click here: - TOLOnews
