Reports circulating on social media about Pakistan forming a high-level delegation to hold talks with the Afghan Taliban, in Istanbul, are entirely false and misleading, according to credible official sources.
Authorities confirmed that no final decision has been made regarding the composition of any delegation, nor has any such visit been approved or announced at any official level.
The officials described the claims, suggesting that a specific intelligence chief or senior official would lead the talks, as propaganda aimed at creating confusion at a sensitive time in Pakistan-Afghanistan relations.
They further clarified that any official engagement with Kabul will be communicated through proper diplomatic channels, and the public is urged to avoid spreading unverified information that could harm national interests.
