US President Donald Trump has said that they Taliban has admitted they have made a big mistake in the peace talks with Washington.

Speaking at a joint press conference with the Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison at the White House on Friday Trump said:” We have hit in Afghanistan, we have hit the Taliban harder than they’ve ever been hit in the entire 19 years of war.  They’ve been hit harder.  It’s come back to me through absolutely impeccable sources that they are saying, “Wow.  We made a mistake with this guy.  We made a big…|” They made a mistake.”

Elsewhere, Trump added:” We were thinking about having a meeting. I didn’t like the idea that they couldn’t produce a ceasefire.  I wasn’t in favor of that. I said, No. If they can’t produce a ceasefire, then why are we bothering?”  And they thought that it was a sign of strength to kill 12 people, wound others — badly wound some others.”

The US president cancelled peace talks with the Taliban on 8th September following an attack on the Green Village Campus in kabul that killed 12 people and an American soldiers and wounded dozens of others.
