There Will Be No Peace With The Taliban, Says NRF
The National Resistance Front (NRF) reacted to Taliban’s supreme leader’s latest stance saying that peace with the Taliban is not possible for now. Ali Maisam Nazary, Head of Foreign Relations of NRF, told Afghanistan International, that they will continue to fight the Taliban.
Nazary, while reacting to the latest audio recording attributed to Hibatullah Akhundazada, the Taliban’s supreme leader, called the Taliban a totalitarian group and added that the group has connections with terrorist groups.
On Friday, Taliban published an audio file attributed to their supreme leader. In the recording, Akhundzada rejected any engagement with the international community because Sharia law is a priority to him.
In the audio note, Akhundzada addressed the international community and stressed that they will not negotiate on Sharia law, and “our life and death is with God”. He added that “they will not act upon other’s will”.
Expressing doubts over the Taliban leader’s presence, Nazary said that it has not yet been proven that the person whose audio file was published on Friday was the Taliban’s supreme leader.
Nazary also questioned the Taliban’s unity and said that the group does not have a sole leader. He claimed that the Taliban have wide political and ideological rifts.
