Taliban To Participate In Third Doha Meet

Zabihullah Mujahid, the spokesperson for the Taliban, confirmed in an interview with the media that representatives of the group will attend the third Doha meeting.

Mujahid stated that the composition of the delegation representing the group in Doha will be announced soon.

The third Doha meeting, hosted by the United Nations and attended by special representatives of countries on Afghan affairs, is scheduled to take place on June 30 and July 1.

Mujahid mentioned that the Taliban have discussed the agenda of the meeting with the United Nations and have deemed it beneficial for Afghanistan.

Previously, the Taliban had set conditions for participating in the third Doha meeting. These conditions included setting their desired agenda, granting the group Afghanistan's seat in the United Nations, and not inviting members of civil society to the meeting.

The Taliban also requested that the United Nations refrain from appointing a new special representative for Afghanistan.

It is not yet clear to what extent the United Nations has accepted the Taliban's conditions.
