The US Special Representative for Afghanistan Reconciliation, Zalmay Khalilzad, on Wednesday wrapped up his “most productive” visit to Afghanistan where the US and Afghan governments agreed on next steps in the peace process.   

Khalilzad said in a tweet that a negotiating team and technical support group are being finalized.

Khalilzad added that he headed to Doha, “with a stop in Islamabad”.

“In Doha, if the Taliban do their part, we will do ours, and conclude the agreement we have been working on,” Khalilzad said.
