Afghan Peace Delegation Visits Pakistan
2011-01-05
[Tolo News] Afghan Peace delegation leading by Burhanuddin Rabbani
... the legitimate president of Afghanistan...
flew to Pakistain on Tuesday to discuss peace with officials in Islamabad.

The delegation is consisted of twenty members from Afghan High Peace Council.

One member of the Afghan peace council who is also part of the delegation said they were invited by Pakistain's Prime Minister, Yusuf Reza Gillani, to discuss peace with senior Pak officials so that the ground is paved for talks with anti-government groups.

The delegation is expected to hold talks with top Pak religious leaders and politicians to discuss negotiations and reconciliation with the Taliban.

Taliban leaders, including Mullah Mohammad Omar, are believed to have decamped to Pakistain and are hiding in the southwestern city of Quetta after the 2001 US-led invasion of Afghanistan.

Afghan analysts say the only way to get rid of gun-hung tough guys and bring peace and stability to Afghanistan and the region is to convince Pakistain to root out terrorist sanctuaries from its territory.

Afghan peace council is consisted of 68 members including two women and was formed in September 21 in 2010.
