England was in direct talks with the Taliban by securing a safe road from Afghanistan for British and Afghanistan who had worked for England, a government spokesman said on Tuesday.
Special Representative of Prime Minister Boris Johnson for Transition Afghanistan, Simon Gass, traveled to Doha, Qatar, to meet with the Taliban representatives, the spokesman said in a statement.
“(GASS) met with a Senior Taliban representative to underline the importance of safe roads from Afghanistan for British citizens, and Afghans who have worked with us for the past twenty years,” said the statement.
The United States completed the withdrawal of his troops from Afghanistan on Monday, ending 20 years of war peaking in the power of Taliban militants to power.
The England mission ended on Saturday, when his last military flight left Kabul after evacuating more than 15,000 people in two weeks since the Taliban took control of Afghanistan.
