Group plans to present written peace proposal to Afghan government as soon as next month, a spokesman tells Reuters.
The Taliban plan to present a written peace proposal to the Afghan government as soon as next month, a spokesman for the group has said even as its fighters make major territorial gains in the breach left by departing foreign forces. Hundreds of Afghan security force members have fled into neighbouring Tajikistan in the face of Taliban advances since the United States vacated its main Afghan base, centrepiece of US and NATO might for almost two decades in the country, as part of a plan to withdraw all foreign troops by September 11. While the transfer of Bagram airbase to the Afghan army added momentum to a Taliban drive to seize control over new districts, Taliban leaders renewed the long-stalled talks with Afghan government envoys in Qatar’s capital Doha last week.
