US Secretary of State John Kerry on Wednesday urged Afghanistan's Taliban militants to follow the recent example of a notorious warlord and make an "honourable" peace with the Kabul government.
"There is a path toward an honourable end to the conflict that the Taliban have waged –- it is a conflict that cannot be won on the battlefield," Kerry told an international donor conference in Brussels.
Kerry said a peace deal signed last month by Gulbuddin Hekmatyar, who heads the Hezb-i-Islami group and was a key figure in Afghanistan's civil war in the 1990s, was a "model for what might be possible."
