Taliban reaching out to West


LONDON: The Taliban leaders appear to be reaching out to the West in an attempt to kick-start peace talks on the future of Afghanistan, The Sunday Times has reported.
A three-page policy paper written in Pashtu contains assurances about the education of women and the future of the Afghan army. The document, which also condemns terrorism, was passed to the newspaper by a go-between claiming to have links to the Quetta Shura, the Taliban leadership council allegedly based in Pakistan.
The paper, which could not be independently verified, is not believed to be officially linked to peace talks. However, several experts familiar with the peace process said it reflected current Taliban thinking. They said it was an indicator of debates taking place within the movement, particularly on the issue of whether and how to hold democratic elections following the Arab Spring.
The paper shows a clear desire by the Taliban to enter a political process when NATO combat troops complete their withdrawal at the end of 2014, and sets out a plan for an electoral system which, it says, would ensure fair representation for minority ethnic groups.
