WASHINGTON: US officials have met with a Senior Taliban representative in Qatar to discuss security and human rights in Afghanistan, said the Ministry of Foreign Affairs Sunday.
Delegates between US players fly to Doha on Saturdays and Sundays for talks “focusing on security and terrorism concerns and safe passages for US citizens, other foreign nationals and our Afghan partners,” according to the price of the Department of Foreign Affairs.
Another focus area is “human rights, including significant participation for women and girls in all aspects of the Afghanistan community,” said the price in a statement.
Both parties also discussed the provisions of “United States’ strong humanitarian assistance, directly to the Afghanistan.” According to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the discussion is “Candid and Professional” and US officials confirm that “the Taliban will be assessed for his actions, not just his words.” Taliban seek international recognition, as well as assistance to avoid humanitarian disasters, after they returned to power in August after withdrawal of US troops after 20 years of war.
