Qatar has formally invited Pakistan to the signing ceremony of a peace deal between the United States and the Afghan Taliban scheduled for November 29, 2020, aimed at ending the 18 years long Afghan conflict.

The invitation, according to Foreign Office spokesperson Aisha Farooqui, was handed over by Ambassador of Qatar to Pakistan Saqr bin Mubarak Al-Mansouri who called on Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi at the Foreign Office on Tuesday.

"He [the Qatari ambassador] handed over a special invitation from Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs of Qatar Sheikh Mohammad Bin Abdul Rahman Al-Thani, for the signing ceremony of the US-Taliban peace deal in Doha on 29 February 2020," the spokesperson said, adding that the ambassador also remarked that Qatar looked forward to receiving Foreign Minister Qureshi at the signing ceremony.

According to Farooqui, the foreign minister appreciated the invitation and stated that he looked forward to the US-Taliban peace deal signing ceremony.

Qureshi also expressed the hope that the signing would pave the way for the next step of intra-Afghan negotiations, and underlined the importance of the Afghan parties seizing this historic opportunity to work out a comprehensive and inclusive political settlement.

"The international community's role will also be crucial for the establishment of sustainable peace in Afghanistan," the foreign minister emphasized.

On February 21, 2020, both the Untied States and the Taliban announced that they had reached understanding following intensive talks to sign the peace deal on 29th of this month.
