Britain and American commanders are opening up talks with the Taliban.
BRITAIN AND US PREPARED TO OPEN TALKS WITH THE TALIBAN: A concerted effort to start unprecedented talks between Taliban and British and American envoys was outlined yesterday in a significant change in tactics designed to bring about a breakthrough in the attritional, eight-year conflict in Afghanistan. Senior ministers and commanders on the ground believe they have created the right conditions to open up a dialogue with "second-tier" local leaders now the Taliban have been forced back in a swath of Helmand province.
Afghanistan is not where we want to make a stand.
