Kabul : Around 2,380 Taliban militants have renounced violence and joined the Afghan government-initiated peace process over the past one-and-half years, a NATO spokesman said Monday.
“Today, 2,385 people have enrolled in 20 provinces,” British Army Major General Phil Jones, director of the Force Reintegration Cell with the NATO-led International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) in Afghanistan, was quoted as saying by Xinhua.
Out of the country’s 34 provinces, Jones named Baghlan, Kunduz, Sari Pul, Faryab, Badghis and Herat, where a lot of former militants joined the peace process.
