Talks on a pact that would allow the United States to end its longest war and withdraw troops from Afghanistan ended on Monday without agreement and both sides would consult their leaders on the next steps, the Taliban said. The United States is pushing for Taliban agreement on two other elements: power-sharing talks with the US-backed government and a ceasefire.
