I will meet with the Taliban

MojNews- Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan said Tuesday he will meet with the Taliban when he returns to the region in a bid to end Afghanistan 's nearly two-decade conflict.

Khan said he rejected a previous offer to meet with the hardline group at the behest of Afghan President Ashraf Ghani whose government is locked in a conflict with the insurgent group.

"When I go back, after meeting President Trump and also I’ve spoken to President Ghani, now I will meet the Taliban and I will try my best to get them to talk to the Afghan government,” Khan said while delivering remarks at a Washington think tank.

Khan is in Washington for his first visit to the U.S. since becoming prime minister in August 2018.
