Afghanistan's Foreign Minister Salahuddin Rabbani officially opened the fourth round of the Quadrilateral Coordination Group (QCG) meeting in Kabul on Tuesday and called on all warring parties to join the peace process.

Rabbani said the nation believes in peace and that its Constitution does not stop anyone from joining the peace process.

He said Afghanistan would welcome any group joining the process but that the Afghan Government has a strong message for those who reject peace, reports TOLO News.

'Security forces will act with full force against those who reject peace,' Rabbani added.

He informed that a meeting will be held soon between the Afghan and Pakistan Ulema in order to establish their role in the peace process.

 

QCG meeting, between representatives of Afghanistan, Pakistan, China and US, will hopefully finalize a date for direct negotiations between the Afghan Government and the Taliban.
