China has hosted talks between Pakistan and Taliban-led Afghanistan as part of efforts to reduce tensions and promote stability following recent clashes along their shared border.
Chinese officials said discussions between the two sides are “advancing,” with a focus on de-escalation and improving cross-border security. The talks come after a period of heightened conflict between Pakistan and Afghan forces, which has raised concerns about regional instability.
China, which maintains close diplomatic and economic ties with both countries, has positioned itself as a mediator in the dispute. Officials have emphasized the importance of dialogue and cooperation to prevent further escalation.
While no formal agreement has been announced, the ongoing discussions signal a willingness from both Pakistan and Afghanistan’s Taliban-led government to engage in diplomatic solutions.
