UNITED NATIONS, United States, March 10, 2020 (BSS/AFP) – The United States
has called for a Tuesday vote at the UN Security Council to endorse
Washington’s deal with the Taliban that was meant to pave the way to peace in
Afghanistan, diplomats said.
The US military has begun withdrawing troops as part of the pullout agreed
in the February 29 agreement with the Taliban.
The request for a UN vote came after negotiations on a draft resolution,
diplomats said Monday.
