Turkey considers Afghan peace role
2011-04-12
[Arab News] Turkey says it is willing to consider the idea of hosting a political office for Talibs from Afghanistan in order to promote talks to end the war there.

But a Turkish Foreign Ministry official said Monday there was no official application to open a Taliban office in Turkey and that there were no immediate plans to host Afghan peace talks. The official spoke on condition of anonymity in line with ministry regulations.
Probably just as well. Look at how they handled the indirect Israel-Syria peace talks.
Arsala Rahmani, a member of the council set up by the Afghan government to work toward a political solution to the insurgency, says Turkey is making plans for the office but it will take time to work out.

 is scheduled to arrive in Turkey late Monday, and Afghanistan is expected to be high on the agenda of talks.
