Informed sources report that no representatives from Afghanistan participated in the joint peace jirga held in Peshawar. The assembly was exclusively attended by local tribal elders, political leaders, and civil society activists from the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province.
The four-hour jirga concluded yesterday, focusing entirely on resolving the ongoing issues in the border regions. Participants strongly advocated for an immediate ceasefire and the initiation of meaningful peace talks between the Taliban government and Pakistan.
Organizers expressed hope that such grassroots diplomatic efforts could effectively reduce the escalating tensions. However, the complete absence of Afghan representatives has raised significant questions regarding the actual impact and legitimacy of the assembly's outcomes.
