Afghanistan: Trump ready to sign peace deal with Taliban if truce holds
- ‘They want to make a deal. We want to make a deal’
- US and the Taliban announced truce earlier this month
Donald Trump said on Sunday he is ready to sign a peace deal with the Taliban in Afghanistan if a temporary truce holds in America’s longest war.
“Time to come home,” he said. “They want to stop. You know, they’ve been fighting a long time. They’re tough people. We’re tough people. But after 19 years, that’s a long time.”
