Delegations from Pakistan and Afghanistan are meeting in Urumqi, Xinjiang, for peace talks mediated by China to end renewed border clashes that began on February 22. Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Mao Ning confirmed the meeting on Friday, noting that both sides welcomed Beijing’s initiative and expressed willingness to continue discussions. China had earlier sent special envoys to Islamabad and Kabul in March to facilitate dialogue.
Pakistan’s Foreign Ministry spokesperson Tahir Andarabi said Islamabad seeks a “permanent solution” and will raise its core concerns during the talks, emphasizing that peace depends on Kabul taking credible action against groups using Afghan territory to attack Pakistan. Meanwhile, Afghan Foreign Ministry spokesperson Abdul Qahar Balkhi stated that Kabul’s delegation joined the talks at China’s request, aiming for balanced and ethical engagement based on good neighborly relations.
The renewed talks follow earlier mediation efforts by Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and Turkey after border clashes last October. Both sides now hope the Chinese-led dialogue will strengthen trade and security cooperation.
