The Hill: Taliban say US drone flights violate Trump-era deal
The Taliban on Tuesday asked the U.S. to cease drone patrols in Afghan airspace, arguing they violate an agreement made last year between the group and the Trump administration, The Washington Post reported.
The deal between the Trump White House and the Taliban, also known as the Agreement for Bringing Peace to Afghanistan, was signed February 29, 2020 in Doha, Qatar, initiating the end of the nearly-20-year war.
Taliban spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid said in a statement to the Post that the “US is violating the Doha agreement and International laws.
The US actions are contrary to it had committed in Doha, Qatar. We hope the US should review its actions, and stop intrusion into our space.”
