DUBAI: The United States and Taliban have inched closer towards sealing an agreement on some issues, including discussions on the timetable for the withdrawal of US forces from Afghanistan and a ceasefire, diplomatic sources informed The News from Doha, Qatar.
The United States special envoy for Afghan peace Zalmay Khalilzad led the talks with the Taliban representatives in Doha during the last four days. Sources familiar with the Qatar talks said the Taliban demanded a timeframe of withdrawal of American forces and the US reiterated call for Taliban to ceasefire immediately. “The representatives of Taliban during the talks have shown flexibility and adaptability for the peace process,” the sources claimed.
The diplomatic sources of Pakistan in Doha also believed that the talks are getting close to positive and satisfactory results. But, the sources were also concerned that some neighbouring countries may play a spoiler’s role in Afghan talks through the current Afghan government.
