Interview de Ryan C. Crocker, ancien ambassadeur des Etats-Unis en Afghanistan,

MARTIN: So if ultimately, the Taliban wants the U.S. out, is it not good for the Taliban to sit down with the U.S. government first to negotiate how they would move forward in peace talks before bringing in the Afghan government?

CROCKER: Not at all. What it does is put the Taliban really on a - if not a legal plane with the United States, certainly symbolically. They are talking about the American withdrawal and the circumstances of that withdrawal. We are there at the invitation of the Afghan government. They’re not in the room. So if we withdraw, to whom do we hand this over to, the Taliban? That’s the symbol we’ve got out there now. That’s what the country is seeing, that the Taliban is their future because that’s who the Americans are talking to, not the government in Kabul.

So far, the Taliban have refused to hold direct talks with the Afghan government, calling it a puppet of the US and insisting only on negotiating with American officials.
