A particularly active commander, he attacked Soviet and government targets as far as Ghazni and Kabul, far from the traditional territory of his clan.

The Pir pressed Amin Wardak to stop his long-range operations and diminished his weapons deliveries.

[2] In his memoirs,[4] Amin Wardak explains that his switch to Khalis' faction did not bring any improvement in weapon supplies.

He blames them for not having been sufficiently focused on the war against the Soviets and the needs of the populations, instead, they were more worried about their own power gaining and their political aims.

He admits that he received very little support from Afghan political parties, but he could bear it because he had developed a strong position within his people and good links with western humanitarians.

Besides, as a Pashtun leader, Amin Wardak always kept reliable and durable relations with minority ethnic communities within the country.

[6] He was also supported by humanitarian activist: Dr Bernard Kouchner[7] who held the office of Minister several times in France and who is also known as an icon of what has been called the French Doctors.

In his memoirs, Amin Wardak states that Massoud has certainly played the most ambiguous role during his late and hesitant participation in this unification process.
