(TOLO News): Talks Continue on Procedural Rules in Doha  The talks on the procedural rules continue between both sides of the Afghan peace negotiations, a spokesman for the High Council for National Reconciliation Faraidon Khwazoon said on Saturday, as violence continues to take lives of Afghans in large numbers.  Khwazoon said a meeting about the agenda of the negotiations is expected to happen soon.  “Discussions continue between the two sides on the disputed points. We hope that an agreement is reached — including the recommendations and the suggestions from the two sides– so that we can have a roadmap for the formal talks,” said Khwazoon.  But sources in Doha told TOLOnews that the Taliban is still insisting that the US-Taliban agreement should be the foundation for the talks.  The contact groups are meeting in an attempt to establish procedural rules and an agenda for the talks.  The two sides have agreed on 18 out of 20 articles for the procedural rules, but the two main articles—the religious basis for the talks and the acknowledgment of the US-Taliban deal as the underlying agreement for the current negotiations—remain unsolved.   The Taliban insists that if a dispute emerges during the negotiations, the solution must be sought using the Hanafi jurisprudence and that the foundation for the talks should be the peace deal that the group signed with the US in late February.  But the Afghan republic’s team has rejected the Taliban’s demands and has suggested some alternatives.  The peace negotiations between teams from the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan and the Taliban started on September 12; however, so far, direct talks have not started because of disagreements on procedural rules for the negotiations.
