Taliban rejects offer of peace talks with Afghanistan

The Taliban has rejected Afghanistan's proposal to hold peace talks in Saudi Arabia next month, Reuters reported Sunday.

Taliban spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid said the militant group would not talk to Afghan representatives, but would meet with U.S. officials in January.

Taliban representatives have indicated throughout the negotiation process that they do not intend to broker a deal with Afghanistan, arguing that the U.S. is the main force in the country.

I seriously doubt the Talis would ever go very far with talks. Right now they are in a different battle trying to show the Muslim world that theirs is bigger than ISIS and all the other nutjob jihad peanut gallery.
The Republic is lost.
