"Pakistan has accused the Taliban in Afghanistan of harboring militants who launch attacks on Pakistani territory, while Afghanistan insists that militancy is an internal Pakistani security problem."
"Afghanistan's acting Foreign Minister Amir Khan Muttaqi expressed hope that minor interpretations would not hinder the progress of the negotiations, noting that useful discussions have taken place so far."
Clashes between the Afghan Taliban and Pakistan reignited in February, with Pakistan accusing Afghanistan of harboring militants. Afghanistan denies these claims, asserting that militancy is a Pakistani issue.

The conflict escalated after cross-border attacks from Afghanistan in response to Pakistani airstrikes. Pakistan declared an 'open war' and vowed to continue military operations against perceived threats from Afghan territory.
