ISLAMABAD: Pakistan has decided to participate in the United Nations-hosted talks on Afghanistan in the Qatari capital scheduled for this weekend, diplomatic sources told Geo News on Thursday.
Earlier this month, Taliban authorities also confirmed their participation in the third round of the Doha talks scheduled to start on June 30, a Taliban spokesperson had told AFP after snubbing an invitation to the previous round.
The sources said Pakistan’s Special Representative on Afghanistan Asif Durrani and Ahmad Naseem Warraich, Assistant Secretary for West Asia in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, will represent Pakistan in the talks.
