Trump says he would sign a peace deal with the Taliban

AFP

A partial truce is in effect in Afghanistan and could ultimately lead to a withdrawal of US forces after more than 18 years

WASHINGTON D.C., USA– United States (US) President Donald Trump said Sunday, February 23, he would sign a peace deal with the Taliban if one were eventually reached in Afghanistan.

“Yes,” he told reporters at the White House as he prepared to depart on a trip to India. “I would put my name on it.”

His comments came after a partial truce took effect in Afghanistan on Saturday, February 22, with the Taliban, US, and Afghan forces agreeing to a week-long “reduction in violence.”

The truce was intended to set conditions for Washington and the insurgents to sign a deal in Doha on February 29 that could ultimately lead to a withdrawal of US forces after more than 18 years. – Rappler.com
