Centcom: Peace Negotiations

[CENTCOM]

We have pledged to the Afghan people, and to the world, that we will diligently work towards bringing stability and peace in Afghanistan. For this goal and for the benefit of the Afghans we have supported the Afghan government’s decision to hold peace negotiations with the Taliban. Let us make it clear, the reconciliation and reintegration is an Afghan led and Afghan initiated process and we support their decision. The peace negotiations can ultimately and solely be conducted by the Afghans themselves, when they choose to solve their differences through peaceful means rather than violence.

As our Secretary of State has said, “With whomever we talk, they have to abide by the following: They must renounce violence. They must renounce any and all ties to Al Qaeda. And most importantly, for the future of Afghanistan, they must commit to abide by the laws and constitution of Afghanistan, which protect the rights of ethnic minorities and women.

Unfortunately, there will be those terrorists who want to continue attacking innocent civilians to achieve their political goals. On the other hand, some are willing to abandon committing suicide attacks, bombing civilian infrastructure and indiscriminately killing innocent civilians. Therefore as our leaders have explained, “We’re going to fight where we need to fight. We will talk if there’s an opportunity to talk. And we will keep building towards a more secure, stable future for Afghanistan" .

Secretary Clinton also made it clear that there are some issues that cannot be compromised in these negotiations, “So I am very clear that I am not going to support any peace agreement that gives up the hard-won rights of the Afghan people. And in particular, I have a commitment to the women of Afghanistan.” Our commitment to the Afghan people and to the region is long standing. To achieve peace and stability for all, it is necessary to think of all possibilities. It is important to recognize that looking for alternative ways of achieving this goal is not a sign of weakness. It also does not mean that we have accepted defeat.

I am sorry Taylor, but Afganistan today is in mess just because of USA selfishness.

Just answer a simple question, who created Taliban.

USA is doing an awesome job in Afghanistan by protecting the lives of Afghan people and protecting their rights as well.
No country in this world is humble and kind enough to do these noble things specially in these modern times.

My wishes and well regards to United States Army and the people of United States for doing all the hardships for the betterment of this world.

Mr. Taylor,

I want to know where were rights of Afghan people which are crushed into US’s great regional games? Where were rights of women whose children converted into Mujahidin from an innocent citizen which could be a good intellectual but US gave them AK-47 rather than books or pen? Where were right of poor women of Afghanistan whose children dead because for the sake of US’s proxy war in Afghanistan? Why they have to give their loving children for this brutal great politics played & playing in Afghanistan? Why they have to see their children being a suicide attacker or being Jihadi because of religious misleading and fake religious faith once injected into their minds?

Why US wake up for the rights of these people at this moment? Because US need it and 30 years ago there were sacred war in files where those women have to give their boys for getting bullet!

Is it how US used to implicate its fake democracy & human rights into messed places?

US looking for reconciliation because they have no other option and defeated from the same Jihadis and Mujahidin you once created for your great cause in Afghanistan and failed to force back this Jin into bottle.

Looking into past, we are getting only one reality; US destroyed a nation their culture and everything to bring them back from horrible time and now talking for development, stability, progress, security & peace?
