“The government of Afghanistan has made no commitment to free 5,000 Taliban prisoners,” President Ghani told reporters in Kabul on Sunday, a day after the accord was signed in Qatar’s capital, Doha.
“It is not in the authority of the United States to decide, they are only a facilitator.”
Pompous Ass Pompeo ‘splains ‘things:
The United States and the Taliban have signed a peace agreement however, “Afghan President Ashraf Ghani announced that his government had not agreed to a clause set out in the deal.”
Ghani objected to arrangements within the deal that would see the Afghan government release 5,000 Taliban prisoners as a condition for direct talks between the armed group and the government.
