Zamir Kabulov, the Russian special representative for Afghanistan, stated that the third Doha meeting will be successful if it facilitates cooperation between the international community and the Taliban.

Kabulov noted that constructive cooperation between the international community and the Taliban would help address the socio-economic challenges faced by the people of Afghanistan.

The third Doha meeting for Afghanistan is scheduled to be held on June 30 and July 1, hosted by the United Nations. Special representatives of various countries on Afghan affairs will attend this meeting.

The Taliban's Ministry of Foreign Affairs has announced that Zabihullah Mujahid, the group's spokesperson, will lead the Taliban delegation at the third Doha meeting.

Kabulov told TASS news agency on Friday that he will meet with Taliban representatives on the sidelines of the Doha meeting.

Kabulov, who participated in the two previous Doha meetings for Afghanistan, had stated in April 2024 that the third Doha meeting would not yield results without the presence of the Taliban.
