Pakistan Confirms New Round of Taliban Peace Talks in China

Pakistan announces ongoing peace negotiations with Afghanistan's Taliban government in China, as Beijing seeks to broker a lasting ceasefire after recent clashes.
Pakistan has confirmed that it is holding peace talks with Afghanistan's Taliban government in China, where Beijing is trying to broker a lasting ceasefire after weeks of fighting.
The discussions come as tensions remain high between Pakistan and Afghanistan, with both countries accusing each other of providing safe haven to terrorist groups operating along their porous border. The Taliban took control of Afghanistan in August 2021 after the withdrawal of U.S. and NATO forces, and have struggled to gain international recognition and aid for their government.
