Pakistan’s Defense Minister Khawaja Asif has expressed doubt over the durability of the ceasefire with the Taliban, alleging the Taliban are now making decisions backed by India.
“I have my doubts that it will hold,” Asif said in a televised interview, referring to the ceasefire. “The Taliban, as I told you, their decisions at the moment are all being sponsored from Delhi.”
Asif questioned the recent visit of Taliban Foreign Minister Amir Khan Muttaqi to India, suggesting the trip signaled deeper coordination between the Taliban and Indian authorities.
