Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar, Taliban deputy and head of the Taliban’s political office in Qatar, gave a brief remark at the opening ceremony of the intra-Afghan peace talks in Qatar on Saturday.
He assured the Afghan people that the Taliban will take part in the talks with the spirit of honesty and “would strive during negotiations to create an enabling environment for its Mujahid and oppressed people for a life of peace, tranquility and stability.”
“We also assure the world that the Taliban will use all their ability so that the intra-Afghan talks get positive results,” Baradar said.
He also called on the U.S. to comply with its commitments under the peace agreement signed in February, and said there will be challenges ahead, but they will “show courage” and “move forward with patience.”
