There has been tension between Pakistan and Afghanistan for a long time. After Pakistan’s air strikes, Taliban also gave a befitting reply. After this, Pakistan Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif came on the backfoot. Now an agreement has been reached between the two countries on ceasefire. Turkey and Qatar have played an important role in this. Turkiye issued a collective statement saying that the meeting would be held again on November 6.
Turkey’s Foreign Ministry said in a joint statement, “A ceasefire was agreed upon between Pakistan and Afghanistan in Doha on 18-19 October, followed by a meeting between Afghanistan and Pakistan in Istanbul on 25-30 October, brokered by Turkey and Qatar.” During this, all the parties talked about strengthening the ceasefire.
Meeting will be held again on November 6
Importantly, there will be a high-level meeting between Taliban and Islamabad once again in Istanbul on November 6, in which the further outline of the ceasefire will be decided. Regarding this, the Turkish Foreign Ministry said that all the parties have agreed that along with maintaining peace, a monitoring mechanism should be created to punish those who break the ceasefire.

Afghanistan gave a befitting reply to Pakistan
Tension had increased between Pakistan and Afghanistan after the blasts in Kabul earlier this month. The Taliban government gave a befitting reply to this and attacked the Pakistan Army. Afghan officials claim they retaliated, killing 58 Pakistani soldiers, while Pakistan’s army said 23 of its soldiers were killed.
After this war, Qatar held a meeting, after which a temporary ceasefire was agreed upon. Then four days of talks in Istanbul ended without any agreement, but with the efforts of Turkey and Qatar, both sides returned to the table for talks. Now a consensus has been reached on ceasefire.
