"The Afghan government offers peace talks to the Taliban without any preconditions," Ghani told participants at the Kabul Process for Peace and Security Cooperation meeting.
The Afghan president said, “Besides the rest of our proposed places, the United Nation is another option that the Taliban can choose for negotiations. We are also ready to negotiate with Pakistan in order to convince it to stop backing terrorism here and of course ,start a new chapter in our relations “, Mohammad Ashraf Ghani.
However, the Afghan president noted the government was seeking "to strike a truthful and sustainable peace deal with conciliatory Taliban," and the armed apposition who have had links with international or regional terror groups will not be accepted.
"To support an Afghan vision for peace, the strongest commitment of regional partners and key stakeholders is now needed more than ever," he said.
Ghani also said that in efforts to reach a peace settlement, the Afghan government was ready for amendment in the country's constitution based on the articles of the constitution.
The Afghan capital Kabul has hosted the 2nd Kabul Process Conference. Representatives from over 20 countries and international organization attended the international meeting on the Afghan peace process.
The Wednesday's meeting was the second of such conference held in Kabul over the past one year. The previous Kabul conference was held in June 2017.
Since 2015, Afghan security forces have assumed the full security mission from NATO and U.S. forces, but around 16,000 foreign troops have remained. However, the US administration last year permitted the deployment of an additional 3,000 troops to Afghanistan, where the US already has 11,000 forces.
Taliban militants and Daesh terrorists have increased their attacks against foreign troops and other Westerners residing in Afghanistan but often end up killing more Afghans than the foreigners occupying the country.
