Where is the Key for Afghanistan Peace?

“Peace” is a word that has now been repeatedly referred by the people of Afghanistan, and in order to achieve it, everyone in any way tries to make it possible in order to gift it for Afghans or score it as their work.

Since years, this wish (Peace) has been lost and the people have been in languish to achieve it back. Many other victims have been sacrificed for Peace and other sides have taken victims.

Formerly Peace was a wish, but recently it has become a “key” that everyone iterate it, but nobody finds it to open the lock.

Zalmai Khalilzad, former ambassador to the United States and a new and special envoy of the US State Department for Peace in Afghanistan, after four rounds of talks with the armed Taliban which the last one took place last week and was for six days, declared; “the key to Afghanistan peace is in Kabul and In the hands of the Afghans.”

At a press conference at the US embassy in Kabul, he stated that the key to peace is now at the hands of Afghans themselves, and they should leave all their quarrels for a peace deal.

But Khalilzad’s comments have also faced many peoples` reacts, saying that the key to Afghanistan Peace is in Rawalpindi of Pakistan.

“I have heard, it was said that the key to peace is in Kabul,” said Amrullah Saleh, a former Afghan intelligence chief. Unfortunately, this is a very superficial evaluation. ”

According to him, the will and desire for peace exists in every Afghan`s blood; but the key to peace is in Rawalpindi, not in Kabul.

Saleh added that Kabul has a strong intent and determination for peace, but repeatedly this will of the people of Afghanistan has fallen, because we have collapsed due to creating contradictions instead of unison in sensitive moments and have been victims of foreigners trap.

“If we accept that the key to Peace is in Kabul, that is, we have been the initiators of conspiracies, not enemies or foreigners,” he said. If we accept that the key to peace is in Kabul, it means that Islamabad and the anti-Afghan sabotage machine are to be acquit and blame Afghan oppressed nation for it. If we accept the key to peace is in Kabul, we will confirm the old tricky narration said that we are not behind this catastrophe but that it is a problem from the Afghans themselves. If we accept that the key to peace is in Kabul, it means that tens of thousands of people in this land were killed in aggression, not in defense. If we accept that the key to peace is in Kabul, it means that we are preventing our peace, and we did not take that key, and we have kept our peace and security locked behind our conspiracies.”

But with all these interpretations and the donation of victims, it is not clear where the key to Peace is? If it is in Pakistan (Rawalpindi), it seems being far off reaching, but if it is in Kabul, how should it be used?

However, the key may be in America’s own pocket, which has lost as its interest, in order to create a negotiation debate.

It should not be forgotten that peace in Afghanistan has not individual keys, as Saleh said it is in Rawalpindi or Khalilzad in Kabul.

Perhaps this matter is no longer important to the people and has been repeated said to be the key in Pakistan; but this country has made always lost it so that peace remain as a hope.

It is important that the parties involved in Afghanistan’s conflict and warfare come together for peace, instead of continuing the war, in order to fulfill the people’s satisfaction and demand.

It should be searched where the key to Peace is found? And whether it is used to open the “lock” or still remain as a rhetoric and scoring?
