Sixth round of Taliban-U.S. talks end in Qatar - Taliban official

KABUL (Reuters) - U.S. and Taliban negotiators wrapped up their sixth round of peace talks on Thursday with "some progress" made on a draft agreement for when foreign troops might withdraw, a Taliban official said.

The talks, in which the United States has also sought assurances that the Taliban will not allow militant groups to use Afghanistan to stage attacks, began on April 30 in Doha, the capital of Qatar.
