FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda William Patey, the out-going British diplomat in Kabul, said the UK has continued and will continue to support Afghanistan’s High Peace Council.
“We supported the High Peace Council, we continue to support the High Peace Council, we continue to support an Afghan-led peace process,” Patey told reporters in a press briefing in Kabul.
He made the remarks just days after a Taliban statement sent to media said the outfit has suspended peace talks, saying Taliban would not negotiate unless the Americans “clarify their stance with regard to dialogue and show willingness in carrying out their promises instead of wasting time.”
“It is not for us to do a separate deal,” Patey responded to a query when his opinion was sought towards Taliban recent statement and suspending peace talks with the United States.
“It is for the international community and the United States to help facilitate discussing between the Taliban and the government of Afghanistan,” the outgoing British Ambassador to Afghanistan further said, adding that “it is for Taliban to end the war now and rejoin their villages.”
He also backed the stance of Afghan government with regard to peace talks with Taliban, saying Taliban have to reject al-Qaida, renounce violence and accept Afghan constitution.
Currently, around 9,500 British troops have been stationed in Afghanistan, and the death toll of the British military has topped 406 since the US-led invasion of the South Asian state in 2001.
