There are no talks with the Taliban to negotiate a peace settlement, Afghan anti-Taliban leader Ahmad Massoud said on Thursday, vowing to step up 'guerrilla warfare' to bring the hardline Islamists to the negotiating table.
Ahmad Massoud, exiled leader of the National Resistance Front of Afghanistan and son of the former anti-Soviet mujahideen commander Ahmad Shah Massoud, poses during an interview for the launching of his new book "Notre liberte" at the Grand Mosque of Paris, France, September 28, 2023....
The NRF groups opposition forces loyal to Massoud. It opposed the Taliban takeover and clashes have occurred since August 2021 between the two sides in the resistance movement's stronghold of Panjshir, north of the capital Kabul. The 34-year-old, who was in Paris to launch a new book, said his fighters were not receiving any military assistance, but were relying on stocks from the decades of war in the country and needed ammunition.
"Those people who left Afghanistan, they left for more than just house or a car. They left for noble causes. They left for some principles," he said.
