The BBC has been told that the Afghan government plans to meet Taliban officials in Saudi Arabia in the next few weeks.

The landmark meeting between the Afghan government and the Taliban is expected to take place in the coming weeks in Saudi Arabia. American-led peace efforts will soon see the establishment of a Taliban political office in the Gulf state of Qatar. In the past, negotiators have had trouble establishing the authenticity of Taliban representatives. However, a delegation of senior Taliban leaders is now in Doha and have already met US officials.

The main Sunni political faction in Iraq says it's ending its boycott of parliament in a move that may help ease a month-long political crisis that many feared would spill into renewed sectarian conflict. But Iraqiya's boycott of the cabinet will remain for now. Carine Torbey reports.
伊拉克逊尼派主要政治派系称，将结束对议会的抵制，此举可能有助于缓解长达一个月的政治危机，许多人担心这场危机会导致派系冲突再起。但伊拉克人抵制内阁的活动仍在继续。Carine Torbey报道。

The Iraqiya bloc said its decision is meant to ease tensions in the run-up to national dialogue expected early next month. Its spokeswoman said that senior politicians, including President Jalal Talabani and Shia cleric Muqtada al-Sadr, had urged the bloc to add peace to return to parliament. The boycott was a response to the arrest warrant issued against one of the bloc's leaders, Vice-President Tariq al-Hashimi. Al-Hashimi is currently in northern Iraq, and the Kurdish regional government, which has been trying to mediate a solution to the crisis, has refused to hand him over to Baghdad.
这个伊拉克集团称，该决定是为了缓解紧张局势，为预定在下月初举行的全国对话做准备。发言人称，包括总统Jalal Talabani和什叶派牧师Shia cleric Muqtada al-Sadr在内的资深政治家，已督促该集团恢复和平以重返议会。这场抵制活动起于集团领导人即副总统Tariq al-Hashimi被通缉一事。Al-Hashimi目前在伊拉克北部，库尔德地区政府曾试图调节该危机，如今却拒绝将其交给巴格达。
