On Saturday, Pakistan had proposed four-point way forward for the Afghan peace process that envisages continued support to Afghan-led and Afghan-owned process while respecting consensus emerging from intra-Afghan talks and ensuring violence never returns to the country nor the Afghan soil is used by terrorist outfits.
The strategy was proposed by Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi, who attended the opening ceremony of historic intra-Afghan talks in Doha through video link.
FM Qureshi proposed following four-pronged strategy:
To continue to support the Afghan-led and Afghan-owned peace process while respecting the consensus that emerges from intra-Afghan negotiations.
To ensure that Afghanistan neither witnesses the violent days of the past nor becomes a space for elements who would harm others beyond its borders.
To deepen and sustain economic engagement with Afghanistan for its reconstruction and economic development.
To ensure a well-resourced, time-bound return of Afghan refugees to their homeland with dignity and honour.
