AVA- The Office of the former President in a statement said outsourcing the management of war to a private firm (Black Water) will be against the sovereignty and constitution of Afghanistan.
Karzai further added that taking such a step would mean that the war will be prolonged and the killing of innocent civilians, women, and children will continue.
