Pakistan’s Foreign Ministry has said Islamabad is open to talks with the Afghan Taliban, but that negotiations will not be unconditional.
Speaking at the ministry’s weekly briefing, the spokesperson said Pakistan was prepared to engage in talks if the Taliban took practical and verifiable steps to prevent militant groups from operating on Afghan soil.
Pakistan has repeatedly accused the Taliban of allowing anti-Pakistan militant groups to operate from Afghanistan, allegations the Taliban have denied. The issue remains a major source of tension between the two neighbours.
