Three days ago, ABP News reported that former President Hamid Karzai, Chairman of the High Peace Council, Dr. Abdullah and former Mujahideen leader Gulbadin Hekmatiar were arriving in Kabuli in order to form a new government in Afghanistan and would talk with the Taliban leaders.

Yesterday, it was reported that Taliban leaders are not coming to Kabul.

Afghan government sources had told ABP News that the three leaders would convince the Taliban leadership that a common comprehensive government should be formed in Afghanistan by involving all sides of the parties, which would also give international recognition to the Taliban-led government.

On Tuesday, Taliban spokesman Zabeehullah Mujahid said that Taliban want a government that includes all parties.

Meanwhile, thousands of people are in the process of fleeing to the country after the Taliban rapidly captured Afghanistan's power. They fear that the same Taliban terror, which was there in its regime 20 years ago, may happen again.

In its first press conference after taking control of Kabul, a Taliban spokesman said it would not target its enemies. But there are reports that fighters have a list of people who cooperated with the government and Taliban are looking for them.
