U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said Saturday that the United States would “sit on the side and help where we can” as he met in Qatar with Afghan government negotiators amid signs of progress to reach a peace agreement with the Taliban. “I would be most interested in getting your thoughts on how we can increase the probability of a successful outcome, ” reporters heard Pompeo telling the Afghan negotiating team. The outgoing top U.S. diplomat also met with Taliban negotiators in Doha as the U.S. speeds up its withdrawal of U.S. troops from Afghanistan after invading the country in 2001. Pompeo and the Taliban negotiating team discussed how to reduce violence in the war-torn country, according to a statement from State Department spokesperson Cale Brown. Pompeo also “encouraged expedited discussions” to develop a “political road map” leading to a permanent cease-fire in Afghanistan. The Taliban and Afghanistan’s government began negotiating for the first time in September in Doha after the Taliban and the U.S. signed a deal in February. The U.S. agreed to withdraw all foreign troops in exchange for security guarantees and a Taliban commitment to begin negotiations. Pompeo met earlier Saturday in Doha with United Arab Emirates Crown Prince Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan and discussed the UAE’s normalization of ties with Israel, countering Iran’s influence in the Middle East, and the need to reach a political solution to achieve peace in Yemen, the State Department said. The secretary of state also met in Doha with Qatar’s ruler, Emir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al-Thani, the deputy prime minister and the foreign minister.
