Iran's Envoy: Taliban Imposes '2 Key Conditions' for Doha Meet Participation

Wednesday, 02/14/2024

Iran's special envoy to Afghanistan has revealed that the Taliban has stipulated two key conditions for their attendance at the Doha meeting.

Hassan Kazemi Qomi, while not providing specifics about these conditions, highlighted that dialogue with the Taliban could facilitate the achievement of peace in Afghanistan.

He noted on the social media platform X on Wednesday, "Should the approach of the regional contact group be embraced by others and engagement with the Taliban pursued, we anticipate encountering a stable Afghanistan."

Kazemi Qomi underlined the importance of determining the seriousness with which the objectives of the Doha meeting are regarded. He articulated that the conference offers an excellent chance to establish a just route for interactions with the Taliban.

The Taliban had previously expressed opposition to the appointment of the UN's new representative for Afghanistan, advocating for a "meaningful" role in the Doha discussions. They have indicated that their decision to participate will depend on further clarifications about the meeting provided by the UN, which is organising the event.
