(Video) Rajya Sabha TV (RSTV) In Depth: Taliban Peace Accord

Topic: Taliban Peace Accord

Topic Description:

The United States of America and the Taliban signed an unprecedented deal to bring peace after 18 years of conflict in Afghanistan but the accord signed in Doha on Saturday faced its first roadblock sooner than anticipated.

Just a day later, Afghanistan's president has publicly rejected the timeline for a prisoner swap with the Taliban. The militant Islamist group had proposed a March 10th deadline for an exchange of prisoners.

The peace deal was signed after President Donald Trump called the conflict in Afghanistan one of America's "endless wars," and vowed to bring the war to a close.
