Afghanistan: Khalilzad Urges US, Islamic Emirate to Pursue Doha Agreement

KABUL, 03 September 2022, (TON): The former US special envoy for Afghanistan’s reconciliation, Zalmay Khalilzad, urged Washington and the Islamic Emirate to pursue the agreement which they reached on February 29, 2019.

In an interview the US former envoy for Afghan peace called on the Taliban to mull over their policies regarding several issues including the closure of girls’ schools beyond grade six in order to engage with the international community.

He said “the Taliban want to have a legal government and be part of the international community and make a strong Afghanistan, they should revise their views.”

Khalilzad suggested the US and Taliban sit for talks and discuss the points of the agreements which have not been implemented.
