Pakistan’s Interior Minister, Mohsin Naqvi, arrived in Kabul on Sunday, leading an official delegation for talks with the Taliban.
He was accompanied by Mohammad Sadiq, Pakistan’s Special Representative for Afghanistan, and another senior official from the Interior Ministry.
Mohammad Nabi Omari, Deputy Interior Minister of the Taliban, welcomed the Pakistani delegation at Kabul Airport.
Sources earlier told Afghanistan International that Naqvi is expected to hold discussions with Taliban Interior Minister Sirajuddin Haqqani on security issues.
Relations between the Taliban and Pakistan have remained tense and inconsistent since the Taliban returned to power in Afghanistan. Islamabad accuses the Taliban of sheltering Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) fighters, who allegedly use Afghan territory to launch cross-border attacks against Pakistan.
Taliban officials have consistently denied these allegations, claiming that Pakistan’s internal security failures are being unfairly blamed on Afghanistan.
