MojNews-In connection with the International Peace Day , Afghan President Ashraf Ghani on Saturday blamed Taliban for the bloodshed in the country by not accepting ceasefire offer.

In a televised speech, President Ghani said the raging violence continues in the country simply because the Taliban are not accepting the ceasefire.

“If the Taliban agree to peace, we [Afghan government] do not want continuation of the war event for a single moment, and I say it again that those are responsible for all the killing and bloodshed who are not accepting peace and ceasefire”, Ghani said.

Earlier this month, hours after U.S. President Donald Trump called off peace talks with the Taliban, Ghani announced &#۳۹;real peace&#۳۹; was only possible if the insurgents agreed to a ceasefire and direct talks with the Afghan government.
