During a video link conferrence from Kabul Commander of Nato forces Afghanistan Gen.John Alen has accused taliban to be a major influencial source of attacks by Afghan troops on Nato troops.About 50 percent of the attacks are believed to be influenced by taliban and rest are due to personal conflicts. Also the holy month of Ramazan can be a major factor as Afghan troops are put in action while fasting.

He also pointed out that since Afghan troops have been in war for a long time it might have some psychological affects on them too.While taking the opportunity Gen.John Alen also pointed out that talibans have a trend to take credit for any or every attack that has been done either which has been due to a successful interferance of talibans or otherwise.

Although Afghan officials have denied all the accusations put on them, as it was said that in Afghan official forces are many foreign intelligance agencies working as a major factor in the increase of these attacks by Afghan troops.
