Pakistan's ambassador meets Hamid Karzai, Abdullah Abdullah

Pakistan's Ambassador to Afghanistan Mansoor Ahmed Khan met former Afghan president Hamid Karzai and chief of the High Council for National Reconciliation (HCNR), Abdullah Abdullah, to discuss the situation in Afghanistan.

Mansoor Ahmed Khan during his meeting said that Pakistan is committed to peace and stability in Afghanistan.

In a twitter message, Mansoor said his discussions with the former Afghanistan president were 'constructive' and aimed towards ensuring long-term stability in Afghanistan.

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.
