On 5th of February 2019, a conference will be held about Afghanistan in the city of Moscow, Russia.

The Islamic Emirate was also invited to this conference and a ten-man delegation led by the respected Sher Muhammad Abbas Stanekzai will be participating in it.

The agenda of this conference is holding discussions about the issue of Afghanistan, declaration of policies and opening channels to reaching an understanding with non-government Afghan political groups.

The Islamic Emirate wants to appropriately utilize this opportunity to clarify its Shariah-based and ethical stance to various parties and explain its policy and mechanism about future Afghanistan vis-à-vis end of occupation, enduring peace in homeland and establishment of an intra-Afghan Islamic system of governance.

New statement from the Islamic Emirate of Aghanistan’s Zabīh Allah Mujāhid: “Remarks Regarding Negotiations With the U.S. in Doha”

The meetings taking place for the past six consecutive days in the Qatari capital of Doha between the negotiation team of Islamic Emirate and the United States finally came to an end today.

In accordance with the agenda, this round of negotiations revolving around the withdrawal of foreign troops from Afghanistan and other vital issues saw progress; but since issues are of critical nature and need comprehensive discussions therefore it was decided that talks about unsolved matters will resume in similar future meetings in order to find an appropriate and effective solution and also to share details of the meetings and receive guidance from their respective leaderships.

The policy of the Islamic Emirate during talks was very clear – until the issue of withdrawal of foreign forces from Afghanistan is agreed upon, progress in other issues is impossible.

In the end the delegation of the Islamic Emirate thanked Qatar for their facilitation role.

Reports by some media outlets about agreement on a ceasefire and talks with the Kabul administration are not true.
