Meet Ahmad Massoud the new leader of the movement against the Taliban

Ahmad Shah Massoud, known as “The Panjshiran Valley of Panjshire”, is a figure that many in Afghanistan will not forget for a very long time. He fought hard against the Soviet Army in Operation “Magitralja” in 1989, and later was one of the leaders of the mujahedin units, and was [...]

He fought hard against the Soviet Army in Operation “Magitralja” in 1989, and later was one of the leaders of the mujahedin units, as well as leader of the Alliance 7, which was founded when the Taliban first came to power in Afghanistan in 1996, telegraphed.

In the late 1990s, he became defence minister in Burhanuddin Rabani's cabinet. During September 9, 2001, two days before the U.S. terrorist attacks, Massoud was hurt to death in a suicide bomber attack by Al Qaeda at his residence where two men had presented themselves as reporters and explosives had hidden him in a video camera.

As the Taliban approached Kabul, his son Ahmad Massoud during an interview said he was open for talks with Taliban militants.

“I am willing to forgive even my father's blood for peace in Afghanistan and security and stability”, has added Massoud, stressing that he and the other Afghans are not “willing to surrender to terrorism”, but that it is open to the formation of “a government with a tabane”.

Massoud was born on July 10, 1989, and is known as a brave Afghan politician. After serving high school in Tajikistan, Massoud spent a year in an army course at the royal academy.

In 2012, he began his studies at the Royal College in London, and in 2015 he also graduated. He magicalized the field of international politics at the University of London.

After completing his studies, he returned to Afghanistan to become director of the Massoud Foundation. In 2019, in a conversation with the AFP news agency, it criticised the peaceful agreement with the US and Taliban.

Today, in his Twitter account, he has published a video of the beginning of a opposition to the Taliban and Al Qaedas. Otherwise the Panjshire Valley is the only part of Afghanistan that the jihadists' foot has yet to tread, and according to Massoud from there will begin destroying Afghanistan's Islamic Emirates, which last night in Kabul was declared the Taliban.
