KABUL: The Afghan Taliban has denied allegations of breach of the agreement, saying a new war would break out if the new US government backed out of the February 2020 peace deal.
According to the international news agency, the Afghan Taliban has warned US President Joe Biden’s administration to withdraw from the peace agreement, saying that the termination of the agreement will start a big war.
The US broadcaster claims that The Afghanistan Study Group had recommended in a report that the new US administration strictly oblige the Taliban to reduce violence before withdrawing troops from Afghanistan.
In its report, the study group warned that if the withdrawal of troops began without forcing the Taliban to reduce the violence, a civil war could break out in Afghanistan, which could take advantage of al-Qaeda.
The Taliban, in response to the study group’s report, denied in a statement posted on its website that it had not complied with the terms of the agreement.
The Taliban, in a threatening tone, said that if the United States withdrew from the peace agreement under the pretext of not reducing the violence, then a major war could break out, for which the United States would be held responsible.
