Taliban leaders have stepped up visits to Kandahar in recent days following President Trump’s comments about retaking Bagram air base, multiple sources told Amu on Sunday.
The sources said that since Trump’s remarks three days ago, most Taliban cabinet ministers have traveled to Kandahar to meet with their supreme leader. Among the discussions, they said, was Defense Minister Mohammad Yaqub Mujahid’s trip to Qatar, where Qatari officials reportedly raised Washington’s request regarding Bagram.
