Afghan ex-Prez Karzai meets Taliban leader

Taliban’s Haqqani Network leader Anas Haqqani reportedly met former Afghanistan President Hamid Karzai for talks in a bid to form a government in the country.

Karzai was accompanied by the old government’s main peace envoy, Abdullah Abdullah, in the meeting, sources citing Taliban officials stated. This comes amid reports that the Taliban is seeking to establish an inclusive government in Afghanistan.

The Taliban is having discussions with Afghan politicians and representatives of the international community about forming an “inclusive government,” Afghanistan’s TOLOnews reported. The Taliban is likely to make the details public soon, the report stated. On Monday, Amir Khan Motaqi, a senior member of the Taliban leadership, in a meeting with Karzai and Abdullah, pledged to establish an inclusive government in the war-torn country.
