Afghanistan: Khalilzad calls for intra-Afghan negotiations

KABUL, 03 March 2022, (TON): Washington’s former special envoy for Afghanistan, Zalmay Khalilzad, has called for intra-Afghan negotiations to discuss the structure of the new government.

In an interview, Khalilzad said that there are some points in the deal that have not been implemented by the international community, the IEA and other Afghans, but that there can be negotiations for their implementation.

Khalilzad said “Afghans should decide on the future by their own, no foreigner can resolve the problem.”

He said that there was a need for an intra-Afghan political settlement and that some of those who previously opposed the Doha deal are now backing the deal.

He further said that conditions have changed and the US cannot offer a specific formula or insist on the inclusion of specific people in the government.
