Writing for a UK newspaper, Amrullah Saleh, who has declared himself as caretaker president of Afghanistan after former president Ashraf Ghani fled the country, says he believes those politicians who leave their country in moments of crisis betray its very soil. He revealed how Afghan officials went underground instead of fighting the Taliban as the outfit fighters advanced towards Kabul last month.
