The planned visit of Taliban Foreign Minister Amir Khan Muttaqi to Pakistan has been postponed, sources in Kabul confirmed to Afghanistan International.

According to the sources, the visit, originally scheduled for Monday, 4 August, has been delayed due to unspecified “technical issues.” Muttaqi had been expected to travel to Islamabad for a three-day visit.

Pakistan’s Foreign Minister, Ishaq Dar, had extended the invitation during his official trip to Kabul in April.

Earlier reports in Pakistani media indicated that Muttaqi was scheduled to meet with Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar, and other senior officials to discuss key political, economic, and security matters.

No new date for the visit has been announced.
