Diplomats from the four nations met in Islamabad and agreed on a road map to market the Afghan peace discussions.

The Taliban is just not part of the four way dialogue and has rejected the weekend statement as “one sided affair” which would not produce any effects.

But the Commander of U.S. and NATO forces in Afghanistan, General John Campbell, insisted there are no preconditions when it comes to talking about the peace process. Once they do that, then we could get to the table…

But should you continue to get violence against women and kids, against security forces, you have no future,” said General Campbell.
