US Special Representative Zalmay Khalilzad wrote on Twitter in response to Taliban’s rejection of a ceasefire and expressed that it is necessary for all sides to reduce violence in order to achieve peace.
“All sides laying down arms is the outcome of any peace process. All sides agreeing to reduce violence is a necessary step toward achieving that outcome and the morally responsible choice to make. We stand ready”, Khalilzad tweeted.
This was in response to Taliban’s recent rejection for a ceasefire starting Ramadan which was proposed in the 13-point resolution at the conclusion of the Grand Assembly/Loya Jirga.
