Afghanistan
UN Emphasises on Talks With the Taliban
2010-06-07
[Quqnoos] The top UN envoy to Afghanistan said on Sunday that resolving challenges facing this country requires holding talks with the Taliban

Stefan de Mistura, the UN special envoy to Afghanistan highlighted that international community will help implement the Afghan peace conference resolution containing 16 articles.

"If the Taliban respect the Afghan constitution, I would find it very difficult for the United Nations Security Council and delay it to keep those people inside the list" said the special UN envoy to Afghanistan.

"It was a good opportunity; it was a good step in the right direction. As in international community, we felt that we could see a lot of unity about one or two major principles," he said. "Principle one: there is no military solution to the Afghan conflict."

The UN envoy also said that serious efforts should be made to implement the Afghan peace conference resolution.

Release of the Taliban prisoners, an immediate end to the illegal search of houses by the foreign forces, equipping the Afghan security forces, and increase of Mujahidin's involvement in the Afghan government were also among the suggestions made by the participants in the Afghan peace conference.
