The High Peace Council (HPC) said on Monday it was working on a new peace talks strategy aimed at bringing the Taliban to the peace talks tables.

HPC chairman Mohammad Karim Khalili said this was in a bid to break the stalemate but that should the Taliban join the negotiations process, this should not be seen as a move to surrender on their part.
