The development came as the Taliban took over Kabul on Sunday in what many say was a lightning offensive that saw Ashraf Ghani, the then president, and other diplomats fleeing from the country.

Meanwhile, Karzai, in a tweet about the meeting, said the current situation in the country and the inclusive political process with national and international legitimacy were discussed.
