(Reuters) - The Taliban said on Tuesday they had canceled planned peace talks with U.S. officials in Qatar this week over an agenda disagreement.

"Both sides have agreed to not meet in Qatar," senior Taliban members based in Afghanistan told Reuters.

Talks had been planned for two days starting Wednesday in Qatar, senior Taliban members earlier told Reuters. The Taliban had rejected requests from regional powers to allow Afghan officials to take part in the discussion.

Indeed, why would traitors who rolled red carpet for foreign invaders , and since living on the crumbs thrown at them, will have any self respect and dignity.

I mean look at that Zalmay HARAMzad. An Afghan, negotiating on behalf foreign invaders with the ones who are fighting against the occupation.
