Ahmad Massoud, son of anti-Taliban commander: "If he was alive 9/11 wouldn't have happened" | AFP

“Ahmad Shah Massoud’s legacy is the freedom and justice that is alive within every Afghan," says the son of the revered anti-Taliban commander, twenty years after his assassination. Speaking to AFP during a visit to Paris for the inauguration of a plaque in his father's honour, 31-year-old Ahmad Massoud calls out the US government's "rushed decision" to strike a deal with the Taliban and slash its troop presence. He vows to continue in his father's footsteps to drive out the insurgents and restore power to the people.
