Following talks between the Pakistani Prime Minister and the Turkish President in Ankara, Afghani President Hamid Karzai said this issue does not concern the US. Karzai said he hopes the US government will stop intervening in Afghani internal issues and start respecting its territory. The US strongly objected to the release of the prisoners, saying the Afghani government must take responsibility for consequences of the decision and urging Kabul to make some efforts to ensure that the released gunmen do not commit further acts of terrorism and violence.
