The Afghan government announced on November 6 that it is ready to hold talks with opposition groups, Kabul-based Tolu Television reported the following day.
Government spokesman Mohammad Karim Rahimi told a news conference that the offer to hold talks with insurgent groups includes neither preconditions nor concessions to those groups.
"If they join the government for the sake of peace and improving security in the region, we are ready to prepare the possible ground for them," Rahimi said.
His remarks follow political talk on possible dialogue between the government and armed opposition groups, including Hizb-e Islami leader Gulbuddin Hekmatyar.
Afghan President Hamid Karzai had previously invited Hekmatyar and Taliban leader Mullah Mohammad Omar to renounce violence and work together with his government in its reconstruction efforts. JC
