Quetta Agreement

The Quetta Agreement was a 2003 political deal between the Afghanistan government and the opposition-aligned Hizb-e-Islami, led by Gulbuddin Hekmatyar. It aimed to bring stability, promote peace, and facilitate the reintegration of Hekmatyar into Afghan politics after years of conflict. The agreement outlined processes for disarmament, political participation, and national reconciliation, helping to reduce violence and foster cooperation. While it marked a significant step toward peace, challenges remained in fully implementing its terms, reflecting the complex efforts needed for lasting stability in Afghanistan.
