KABUL (Khaama Press): The next round of bilateral peace talks between U.S. and Taliban representatives will kick off from 29th of June.
The U.S. Special Representative for Afghanistan Reconciliation said Sunday that the 7th phase of negotiations will begin on 29th of June.
Furthermore, Khalilzad said “Based on my recent visits to Afghanistan and Qatar, I believe all sides want rapid progress.”
The American and Taliban representatives have held six rounds of talks regarding peace process in Qatari capital of Doha.
The sixth round of talks between U.S. and Taliban representatives concluded earlier last month.
Ambassador Khalilzad said the sixth round of talks made steady but slow progress on the aspects of the framework for end the war in Afghanistan.
However, he said “the current pace of talks isn’t sufficient when so much conflict rages and innocent people die. We need more and faster progress. Our proposal for all sides to reduce violence also remains on the table.”
