The Afghan Peace Process

The Afghan Peace Process refers to ongoing efforts to achieve a peaceful resolution to decades of conflict in Afghanistan, primarily involving negotiations between the Afghan government, the Taliban, and international stakeholders. It gained significant attention after the U.S. initiated talks with the Taliban in 2018 to end military involvement. The process aims to establish a ceasefire, promote political inclusivity, and ensure the protection of human rights. However, challenges remain, including violence, trust issues, and differing visions for Afghanistan's future, making the path to lasting peace complex and multifaceted.
