Ahmad Shah Mohibi is the Founder of Rise to Peace. Diplomacy works when there is a military presence on the ground, said Ahmad Shah Mohibi while offering three options for the US in Afghanistan.
Repost from the CGTN America:
With just weeks left before a deadline to withdraw U.S. forces from Afghanistan, Washington is pushing for a peace deal between the Kabul government and the Taliban, ending two decades of war.
The U.S. is circulating a proposal calling for Ashraf Ghani’s government to be replaced with an interim administration, something the Afghan leader opposes.
President Ghani is instead floating new presidential elections in six months.
