Pakistan and Afghanistan’s Taliban governments have resumed talks in China.

Axar.az reports representatives from both countries are meeting in Urumqi, in northern China, the officials told The Associated Press, speaking on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to brief the media.

China has not commented. Pakistan’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs neither confirmed nor denied the latest development.

It should be recalled that fighting resumed on the evening of February 26 along the Pakistan–Afghanistan border. Pakistan’s Defense Minister Khawaja Asif said that his country and the Taliban government in Afghanistan are currently in a state of open armed confrontation.
