All Americans must leave Afghanistan except diplomats: Top Taliban official

All foreign forces in Afghanistan are considered occupiers, a top Taliban official tells Press TV, stressing that the United States should pull out all its military and civilian personnel from the country except its diplomats. Mullah Khairullah Khairkhwa made the remarks in an interview with Press TV on Wednesday, alleging that the militant group and the United States had agreed on the matter. They have accepted that all Americans except their diplomats should leave Afghanistan and this issue is clearly written, he said in an interview with Press TV's Face to Face program. All NATO forces and their allies in Afghanistan must leave Afghanistan, and even those who were nominated to protect their embassies were rejected by us, because if we come to the government of Afghanistan, we are responsible for protecting their embassies and diplomats, added the official.
