ROME (Online): Taliban would be part of the proposed transitional set up to be put in place in Afghanistan, according to General Abdul Wali, brother-in-law of Afghanistan's exiled former ruler Zahir Shah. Spelling out details of an agreement reached between Shah and a delegation of the Northern Alliance in an interview with The Hindu, he told the agreement proposes ways to establish a broad-based, popular government in Afghanistan by convening a Loya Jirga - council of ethnic and tribal chiefs - to set up a new transitional government. |
