Taliban to make peace?

On July 14^th, two members of the Afghan parliament held a press conference, announcing that that they had met with Taliban leader Mullah Mohammad Omar over a year ago.

During this meeting he agreed on an outline for peace negotiations with the Kabul government.

There were further claims that this had been approved by President Karzai himself. Omar was said to have signed an agreement that he himself revised but this was rejected by the president.

The president’s office say that they have doubts that the signature on the document is truly Mr Omar’s.
