A report by the UN Monitoring Team released on June 2, said that “the Taliban and Al-Qaeda remain closely aligned and show no indication of breaking ties”, reports Tolo News. 18 Member States report “no material changes to this relationship, which has grown deeper as a consequence of personal bonds of marriage and shared partnership in struggle, now cemented through second generational ties.” According to UN member state information, “Al Qaeda is resident in at least 15 Afghan provinces, primarily in the east, southern and south-eastern regions, and are led by Al-Qaeda’s Jabhat-al-Nasr wing under the direction of Sheikh Mahmood. 19 Members of the group have been relocated to more remote areas by the Taliban to avoid potential exposure and targeting. Al-Qaeda maintains contact with the Taliban but has minimized overt communications with Taliban leadership in an effort to 'lay low' and not jeopardize the Taliban’s diplomatic position vis-à-vis the Doha agreement. Member States reported that a significant part of Al Qaeda leadership remains based in the border region of Afghanistan and Pakistan, where the core is joined by and works closely with Al Qaeda in the Indian Subcontinent."

United States (US) special envoy Zalmay Khalilzad on June 7 said that in the present scenario two options remain for Afghanistan a political solution to the conflict or continued war, reports Tolo News. He reiterated that the United States will not abandon Afghanistan despite US troops leaving. Zalmay Khalilzad said that attempting a military solution will result in a continued war, while also acknowledging that the peace process in Doha has been slow and that both sides of the negotiations have not focused on the main issues. Khalilzad said the two conditions of Taliban including release of 7,000 more prisoners by the Afghan government as well as the removal of their leaders’ names from the blacklist are not practical given the current circumstances in which violence remains high in the country. Khalilzad said that the Taliban has not responded to a US plan for Afghanistan’s future after it was shared with them, and they have not returned a plan in response to the United States. “Some Taliban negotiators, including their chief negotiator Shaikh Hakim, went to Quetta and had some discussions, and have returned now and say they are interested in the resumption of the talks in the near future, and that they might submit their plan to the Republic delegation,” Khalilzad said.
