Talking, not fighting, is the only way to end Afghanistan's four-year-old Taleban insurgency, the head of the government's commission for national reconciliation said on Sunday.
"Talks, dialogue and negotiations...would prove fruitful for ending the war and reaching an understanding," Sibghatullah Mojadeddi told reporters after a conference aimed at exploring possible talks with the Taleban. Participants in the government-sponsored conference included several former Taleban officials, including Wakil Ahmad Muttawakil, a former foreign minister who surrendered to US forces and was released after several years in custody.
