The reason I started this stub is because even though this general is not in the regular reading of foreign papers, his name is still mentioned in the events of October 2001, an occasion of Pakistani foreign policy u-turn (siding with the US at the cost of Taliban). He was given this post because of his not-so-fundamentalist views about the Taliban or other terrorist groups, as opposed to the general he replaced. Razzsic15:03, 3 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I removed the Criticism section as it contained weasel words and the reference went to a 404 error. If we can find a correct version of this reference (I wasn't able to find one on the website, as a search on the Indian Embassy site for 'Yusaf Kahn' returned nothing) then we can restore it, but preferably with revised language. 65.203.128.130 (talk) 20:12, 4 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
