No Clear Roadmap For Way Forward in Afghanistan, Says Qatari PM

Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al-Thani, the Prime Minister of Qatar, said that after the withdrawal of US forces from Afghanistan, there is no clear roadmap for the way forward in Afghanistan.

Al-Thani warned of sporadic engagement to resolve issues in Afghanistan and said that with such an approach, no progress will be achieved.

Addressing a global forum in Singapore on Friday, Al-Thani stressed that the international community had to be united over the past 20 years to bring out reconciliation in Afghanistan.

However, the Qatari Prime Minister suggested that the talks about Afghanistan should continue until a solution to the country's problems is found.

Referring to the two years of Taliban rule in Afghanistan, Al-Thani warned that with the continuation of the current situation in Afghanistan, the country will suffer socially and economically.

In May, Al-Thani had visited Afghanistan and made a stop in Kandahar, after which media outlets had reported that he had met with the Taliban leader there.
