It was after September 3 when the Taliban forces with the help of Pakistani air force and drones intensified their attacks on Panjshir Valley killing few close relatives and commanders of resistance leaders. After that the Saleh’s Twitter account had   gone silent.</p>
<p>
On September 30, it was widely reported that Ahmad Massoud, the leader of anti-Taliban National Resistance Front and the son of legendary resistance leader Ahmad Shah Massoud and Amrullah Saleh, the former vice-president and self-declared acting president, were in Dushanbe under the protection of Tajikistan’s government.</p>

<p>
Former officers of the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan who left the war-torn nation after the takeover by the Taliban set up the Afghan government in exile, headed by Saleh.</p>
<p>
“After the escape of Ashraf Ghani and his rupture with Afghan politics, his first vice-president (Amrullah Saleh) will be leading the country,” said the statement released by the Afghan embassy in Switzerland.</p>
<p>
After three weeks, Saleh resurfaced on Twitter on Friday. He said in a series of tweets which said that while Afghan diplomacy is being carried out  in Doha, all decisions regarding the country are being taken in the headquarters of the Pakistani army GHQ in Rawalpindi. It is the ISI which runs the country through its puppets of Haqqani Network.</p>

Saleh's tweets come a day after the visit of  Pakistani Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi and ISI chief Faiz Hameed, who visited Kabul on Thursday.</p>
<p>
Unlike his other secret visits, Hameed’s  first visit to Kabul had hit news headlines when he had rushed to sort out the internal disputes among Taliban leaders over their government formation. He made sure that the pro-Pakistani Haqqani militants got the lion’s share in the Taliban government.</p>
