KABUL - Talks with the Taliban on ending Afghanistan’s war are making steady but slow progress, the chief U.S. envoy involved in the negotiations said on Friday while signaling growing frustration with relentless militant violence.
The talks, the most sustained effort to end the 18-year conflict - America’s longest war - began last year. “We made steady but slow progress on aspects of the framework for ending the Afghan war. We are getting into the ‘nitty gritty.’ The devil is always in the details,” Khalilzad said. Taliban spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid said his fighters attacked the group because it promoted “Western culture”, including the mixing of the genders.The attack in Kabul triggered a sense of unease between the U.S. and Taliban negotiators in Qatar, three senior officials said.
But the Taliban have repeatedly rejected calls for a ceasefire, and they also refuse to talk to the U.S.-backed Afghan government, and have instead stepped up their attacks.
