Kabul (BNA) Pakistan’s Prime Minister Imran Khan met with the United States Special Representative for Afghanistan Reconciliation, Zalmay Khalilzad, in New York on Sunday.
The meeting took place on the sidelines of the 74th session of the United Nations General Assembly.
During the meeting, Khalilzad informed Imran Khan about “how far his negotiations with the Taliban had gone, the nature of the talks and what expectations he holds in the future,” Pakistan’s foreign minister said.
“So, he presented his entire analysis of the US-Taliban talks,” Shah Mahmood Qureshi said.
The meeting comes after US President Donald Trump declared talks with the Taliban as dead, citing the group’s continued violence.
Earlier, Pakistan’s Khan said that he would encourage US President Donald Trump to restart talks with the Taliban to end the Afghan conflict.
