Taliban claims US violates peace deal in Afghanistan

Taliban said that the peace deal with the United States is on a breaking point because of the violation of the deal from Washington.

Earlier on February 29, United States of America and the Afghan Taliban signed the peace deal in Qatar – the capital city of Doha after a long spell of negotiations.

According to the sources of Arab media, Taliban are seriously asking the Americans to abide by the contents of the agreement and to alert their allies to fully abide by the deal.

Taliban deputy leader Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar and U.S. envoy Zalmay Khalilzad inked the deal in an opulent hall in a five-star hotel in Dohar, Qatar.

According to the details, Taliban said that the deal is nearing a breaking point after the US drone attacked on civilians and the government of Afghanistan opposed the swap of the prisoners.
