The State Department in a release on February 21 had announced the agreement saying, "We are preparing for the signing to take place on February 29."


The deal hinges on "reduction of violence" and so far no major violence has happened in the landlocked South Asian country.

The State Department in the same release said,"Intra-Afghan negotiations will start soon thereafter, and will build on this fundamental step to deliver a comprehensive and permanent ceasefire and the future political roadmap for Afghanistan."

The Taliban in its release confirmed the development saying, "Both parties will now create a suitable security situation in advance of agreement signing date, extend invitations to senior representatives of numerous countries and organizations to participate in the signing ceremony, make arrangements for the release of prisoners, structure a path for intra-Afghan negotiations with various political parties of the country".

Afghanistan and the US Taliban peace deal was discussed during US President Donald Trump and PM Modi's meet in Delhi during the later's visit.

US President Donald Trump in response to a question during his Delhi press conference had said," I think India would like to see it happen. I spoke with Prime Minister Modi today, and I think they would very much like to see it happen."

"And we’re pretty close. We’ll see what’s going on. We’ve got two days now under our belt without violence or, I guess, a minimum of violence. And we’ll see what happens. But people want to see it," the US president had said.

India is Afghanistan's major development partner and has built the India-Afghanistan friendship dam in the western province of Herat and the Afghan Parliament in capital Kabul.

No but why should India be there in the first place. It doesn't have a common boarder with Afghanistan and neither had it persuaded Talibans to come on the negotiating table.

Qatar needs allies that's why they proposed Indians stand witness to this historic deal.

India once again shown her right place.

Nikalna Khuld Se Aadam Ka Sunte Aaye The Lekin,
Bade Be-Aabroo Hokar Tere Kooche Se Hum Nikle
Hazaaron Khwahishein Aisee ki Har Khwahish Pe Dam Nikle
Bohot Nikle mere armaan lekin Phir Bhee Kam Nikle

(We have heard about the dismissal of Adam from Heaven,
With a more humiliation, I am leaving the street on which you live.
Thousands of desires, each worth dying for...
many of them I have realized...yet I yearn for more...
Mirza Ghalib)

A stable Afghanistan is in the best interest of Pakistan. Sure, let india be a witness to it.

But it sounds like inviting india to its own Kiryakaram. Suwahaaaa!!!!

 

[American Pakistani]

Lol, witness your billions spent on "library" going down the drain.

I know everyone is getting pretty excited and poking fun of the Indians at their participation in the signing ceremony but serious analysis has to be looked I think the Indians may want to talk or cut a deal with the Taliban they know the jig is up there and loss of Chahbahar is in the horizon

There were way more chances of doing that in Afg.

Still we are not talking a normal state or govt but country run by tribal mobs running to do bidding of others

If that was so easy US would have done that.

One can understand the disdain and the fake mockery of the PDF accolaites.

BUT we have been witness to Quereshi thumping his chest about how Pakistan yes yes Pakistan was especially invited to witness the signing. He went around boasting about Pakistans place in the world to be so especial especial place that Pakistan of all countries was especially invited to witness such a momentous occasion especially.
Qatar invited India because they know India's place in Asia and knows the country that has spend billions building schools roads Parliament building sports grounds dams etc etc
PDF'ers are basically embarrassed by being shown up by Qatar by inviting India as well.
ENJOY
