With NATO member states upping the push for Afghan President Hamid Karzai to root out corruption, he's responded.
But, not by agreeing; instead, he's fighting back.
Karzai's pushback against Western demands he crack down on corruption? Demand "contractors" leave within 4 months.
Theoretically, this includes local "contractors," but, really, it's targeted at Western companies.
Karzai knows NATO can't directly run operations that quickly. This is either a tit-for-tat, or a move to get his own "contractors" into play. Or both!
