WASHINGTON - A US official said on Thursday the United States is not holding talks with Afghanistan's Taliban leaders in Qatar.

Sources in the Afghan Taliban said their negotiators would hold a first round of talks with US officials on Thursday.

The US official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said reports of meetings were "not true."

Then they must be in talks.
