EU countries agreed to re-establish a joint presence in Kabul if security allows to deal with the Taliban on ensuring safe passage departures, the bloc’s top diplomat said Friday.
"We have decided to work in a coordinated manner to coordinate our contacts with the Talibans -- including through a joint European Union presence in Kabul... if the security conditions are met," foreign policy chief Josep Borrell said Friday after a meeting of EU foreign ministers.
