Read Mushy’s statement with the article published in an Indian newspaper. Musharraf’s statement does hold weight. ISI propped the Taliban and then pushed Karzai to cut a deal with them (our proxies)? This writer also believes that Pakistan agreed to help US take out OBL on the condition of being part of the end game in Afghanistan. But Karzai started putting roadblocks in that.

Two Pak generals, one Afghan endgame

Who had more right on deciding Afghanistan’s fate and “end game” - Karzai or Musharraf?

In any case, Ashraf Ghani seems to be able to interface more productively with Pakistan so far, and it is only possible with an agreement from Pakistan that Taliban will never be supported again. Question remains, is this enough to end the Taliban (and its variants) or are they now a permanent fixture in the tribal areas of both countries?
