Taliban say won't attack west if troops withdraw

The Taliban have just announced that if foreign troops withdraw, they will give legal guarantees that attacks against Western countries won't originate from Afghanistan:

The Taliban said in a statement Saturday it would provide a "legal guarantee" that they would not intervene in foreign countries if international troops withdraw from Afghanistan.

The Taliban have "no agenda of meddling in the internal affairs of other countries and is ready to give legal guarantee if the foreign forces withdraw from Afghanistan," the group said in a statement emailed to news organizations.

The statement did not specify what such a guarantee would look like. A Taliban spokesman was not available for comment.
