Taliban Political office in Qatar

[Hashmat]

As you all know, the Taliban opened a political office in Qatari capital, Doha, for peace negotiations. President Karzai said: "With the opening of office, the peace negotiations between High Peace Council and Taliban must start soon. Once talks start in Qatar the process should be transferred to Afghanistan immediately." Meanwhile, Sayed Akbar Agha, former leader of Jaish al-Muslimeen group said: "The opening of this office will benefit Afghanistan and peace talks will be accelerated. Opening of this office is an urgent need." What is your opinion about opening of the Taliban political office in Doha for peace negotiations?
What will be major obstacles in hindering these peace negotiations?


Respectfully,
