Former president of Afghanistan, Hamid Karzai, has said that Daesh has emerged in Afghanistan in the past three to four years under the watch of US military and intelligence agencies. In an interview with Russia Today in London, Karzai said he has more than suspicions that US bases in Afghanistan are used to aid Daesh. "I get daily reports by the Afghan people that unmarked military helicopters supply Daesh in many parts of Afghanistan," he claimed.

Karzai said that from 9/11 until today, there is more extremism in Afghanistan, despite spending billions of dollars. He stated that the Afghan people ask that if the US came to Afghanistan to defeat extremism, "why do we have more of it today". "We don't want our country to be bombed with huge, destructive weapons. We want peace," said Karzai, adding that the use of MOAB (mother of all bombs) by the US forces was an indication to North Korea to show off US power, but it was an atrocity on the Afghan people.
