1/4 I welcome the news from #Doha that the two Afghan sides have reached a significant milestone: A three-page agreement codifing rules and procedures for their negotiations on a political roadmap and a comprehensive ceasefire.
2/4 This agreement demonstrates that the negotiating parties can agree on tough issues. We congratulate both sides on their perseverance. We thank #Qatar for its facilitating role as host.
3/4 The people of #Afghanistan now expect rapid progress on a political roadmap and a ceasefire. We understand their desire and we support them.
4/4 As negotiations on a political roadmap and permanent ceasefire begin, we will work hard with all sides for serious reduction of violence and even a ceasefire during this period. This is what the Afghan people want and deserve.
