KABUL - Desperate Afghanistan President Ashraf Ghani who has been ditched in Afghanistan endgame makes an olive branch offer to Afghan Taliban.
Ghani visited Nangarhar province on Sunday, said the Afghan government is ready to allow the Taliban to open an office in Kabul, Kandahar or Nangarhar, TOLO News has reported.
Ghani said “a sustainable peace and a peace with dignity” will come to the country and for this, he is ready to even sacrifice his life.
But remarks like this are not new as Ghani has made such statements in the past.
However, despite these offers, the Taliban has until now refused to hold talks with the Afghan government.
“We want peace in Mecca. Is that satisfactory or Moscow?” asked Ghani. “The nation says that they (Afghan politicians and Taliban members) did not go to Mecca but they went to Moscow (for talks on peace); therefore, they should answer to this question.”
Ghani said that he is expected to give up his position – for peace – but added that this post was given to him by the people who voted for him and that this will not be compromised.
