CURRENT PEACE NEGOTIATION OF THE PAKISTAN TALIBANIntroduction:The Taliban appeared in the fall of 1994 and somehow presented themselves as a fact on the ground in the south of Afghanistan and fairly quickly made contact with the Pakistani army and the head of its intelligence service. There was a meeting at ISI headquarters with some of the early leaders of the Taliban, not Mullah Omar, but some of his aides and the head of the ISI in the late fall of 1994. It was an introductory meeting. From this beginning, the ISI became increasingly involved alongside the Taliban as the latter increased their ambitions in southern Afghanistan. Throughout 1995, collaboration between the ISI and the Taliban intensified and changed in character. It was increasingly a direct military alliance. The ISI was itself divided during this period of the emergence of the Taliban on how to carry out its policy in Afghanistan and on whom to favor. The ISI, during a long period of anti-Soviet warfare, had been closest to Gulbuddin Hekmatyar, a Pashtun and Islamist commander. But by the 1990s, Hekmatyar was no longer effective, at least in the view of many ISI members. The Taliban have gradually proven to be their best customer. They became more effective militarily and it became increasingly clear that their serious discipline appealed to ordinary Pashtuns, at least in southern and eastern Afghanistan. Contact with the Pakistani ISI: During the power vacuum created by the withdrawal of Soviet troops from Afghanistan in 1989, the country was torn apart by warring mujahideen groups and Pakistan's ISI seized the opportunity to exert power in the region by promoting a previously unknown Kandahari student movement. They continued to support the Taliban, while the Pakistanis... middle of paper ......rhyme Minister Nawaz Sharif to reach a peace deal to end an insurgency that has killed thousands in recent years .The Pakistanis and Afghan Taliban share a similar ideology, but the Pakistani Taliban have a distinct leadership structure and focus their efforts on attacking the Pakistani government and trying to impose their harsh form of Islam in the country. The Afghan and US governments have been conducting indirect talks through intermediaries with the Afghan Taliban. April 3, 2014: Pakistan rescued 16 captives with the approval of the Prime Minister. Among them, no one is a Taliban commander. Some names included in these captives are Badshah Gul, Riazuddin, etc. They all belong to the Kaladam tehriq-i-taliban or taluq mehsul region.
