Trump vows quick fix as Afghanistan-Pakistan talks continue

U.S. President Donald Trump vowed to "solve" the Afghanistan-Pakistan crisis "very quickly" as the neighbors’ peace talks entered a second day in Istanbul, seeking to turn a fragile Doha ceasefire into a lasting security framework. The dispute follows the deadliest clashes in years. Pakistan’s army said it killed 25 militants while repelling two border infiltrations, and reported five soldiers dead; the figures could not be independently verified. Taliban-run RTA said Kabul submitted a draft urging respect for Afghan territory and a four-way ceasefire monitor; Pakistan offered a counter-draft. Pakistani officials did not comment.
