WASHINGTON: The fast-paced withdrawal of foreign troops, stalled peace talks and rising violence in Afghanistan can undermine Pakistan’s efforts to facilitate the Taliban’s alleged return to Kabul through power-sharing arrangements, says an international report released on Wednesday.
The report “Pakistan: Shoring Up Afghanistan’s Peace Process” was compiled by the International Crisis Group, a think tank with offices in Washington and Brussels and regional offices across the globe.
“Should the Afghan peace process continue to sputter or altogether fail, Islamabad’s relations with Kabul and Washington would sour,” the report warns.
