Representatives of the radical Taliban movement banned in Russia stated that the withdrawal of American troops from Afghanistan was a prerequisite for their participation in the inter-Afghan talks.
“When the Americans announce the withdrawal schedule, this will enable the Afghans to talk together about the future government”, - the source of Afghanistan.ru quotes the representative of the Taliban political office in Qatar, Mohammad Suhayl Shahin.
Earlier it was reported that the seventh round of talks between the Taliban and the United States will begin in Qatar. Earlier this week, a Taliban delegation visited China. According to Chinese media, Beijing called on the Taliban for a cease-fire, but they rejected the proposal.
