U.S. envoy for Afghan peace in Kabul to brief the Afghan government
The U.S. envoy for Afghan peace Ambassador Zalmay Khalilzad arrived in Kabul to brief the Afghan government on recent visits and meetings regarding peace process, it has been reported.
An official in ARG Palace has told Reuters “The aim of his visit is clear, to report to President Ghani on his recent visits and meetings in some countries regarding the Afghan peace process.”
This comes as efforts are underway to revive the stalled peace talks between United States and the Taliban group.
Ambassador Khalilzad reportedly met with the Taliban leaders in Islamabad this month amid low-key meetings he had regarding reconciliation efforts.
The U.S. President Donald Trump called off peace talks with Taliban political leaders last month following a series of deadly attacks in Kabul.
The Taliban group claimed responsibility for the attacks amid ongoing talks with the U.S. representatives in Qatari capital of Doha.
The attacks killed several people including an American soldier.
