Negotiations took place between the representatives of Islamic Emirate and the United States of America in the city of Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, on the 17th and 18th of December 2018.

These series of meetings were also attended by representatives from three Islamic countries and the focal point of discussion was the withdrawal of foreign troops. Moreover, the delegation of Islamic Emirate presented documented information and proof to the participants about indiscriminate bombings against civilians and demanded its immediate halt. Talks were also held about humane treatment of prisoners and their freedom, a matter that shall be taken into consideration. The policy of Islamic Emirate about a ceasefire and talks with the Kabul administration, interim government, elections and other internal matters was already known beforehand and would not be discussed because the root cause of all problems and biggest obstacle to peace is the occupation of Afghanistan and bringing it to an end.

Future negotiation meetings shall continue after deliberations and consultations by both sides with their respective leaderships.
