Turmoil in Afghanistan draws global condemnation

Iran, the United States, Moslem leaders and Western European communists joined a chorus denouncing Soviet intervention in Afghanistan after the coup that toppled Hafizullah Amin and installed Babrak Karmal. Analysts note about 10,000 Soviet troops, with Tass reporting the action as aid at Kabul. Carter called it a grave threat to peace.

Stewart recalled Amin's frank remarks on Karmal and Russians, and noted deletions in Kabul Times of references to Karmal. Her exclusive taped interviews aired in English and Pashtu.
