KABUL want all 14,000 US troops to leave within a year.
A US newspaper reported on Tuesday Taliban made the demand a day after the insurgents stormed a joint US- Afghan military base in the south, killing 25 Afghan soldiers.
The Washington Times reported US negotiators, led by Zalmay Khalilzad, had not yet made a counteroffer during the most extensive parleys ever between the two sides.
Initially, the US had suggested withdrawing all forces by 2024 in line with President Trump’s plan . . .
