RE: AFGHANISTAN – TALIBAN PEACE TALK 2020
Suggestion: Hon. President, let me start my
paying my respects to you and through you to. I wrote to you in the month of September
9, 2019 regarding Afghanistan and Taliban peace talk, I suggested three
possible solutions such as one is divide the country into two such as North
Afghanistan and South Afghanistan. Give South Afghanistan to Taliban and keep
North Afghanistan for your government. Second is power sharing initiative
between your government and the Taliban’s. Third is set up western alliances
and rule of law institutions to keep peace in Afghanistan. For that you should
have a structured government that sought to establish ties with other western
nation. Western alliances should provide enough support in all areas and
building state, industry, agriculture, educational institutions and financial
assistance. I am sure that first and second solutions may be incompatible for
you because you may not want to divide the country and the Taliban and your
government is incompatible because Taliban culture makes your government pretty
much impossible. If any attempt to form a coalition government is destined for
failure. I fervently hope that you will choose third solution that will address
all issues in Afghanistan. My decision remains the same till today. The tenuous
security and prosperity can be achieved if your government established ties
with western nations. Please do not forget that your government is on the
strong backing of the US and NATO forces.
Hon.
President, Taliban is determined to enforce Islamic law while your government
is determined to demand democracy, elections and women’s rights. Both cannot exist
in the same place because religious precepts and values are incompatible with
democracy. I have many questions in my mind. There are many controversial
issues in Afghanistan – Taliban peace talk. Is it possible for Taliban to
transform a political party in Afghanistan? Is it possible for Taliban
participating democratic process of Afghanistan? Will Taliban allow Afghan
people to use social media freely? Humanity will never achieve full human
freedom until it rejects religious precepts and values. Will Taliban cuts ties
with terrorist groups? Taliban is an armed wing. How will armed wing form a
political party or participating democratic process in Afghanistan? I impressed
that Taliban were successful in opium eradication in Afghanistan. If I am not
wrong, your government also lacks authority. Any peace deal made from
government who lacks authority is deeply flawed. In my opinion, a deep analysis is required into Afghanistan-Taliban
peace perspective. We need permanent settlement. Temporary settlement will
eventually lead to Taliban takeover of Afghanistan sooner than later. How will
the ideological position of Afghanistan and Taliban can be reconciled in the
long term? For that Afghan people’s ideas and hearts are most important matters
for reconciliation process before any other issues.
Thank you very much for your kind
attention Hon. President
Respectfully
yours,
Athinarayanan Sanjeevraja.
