There are always things to do to improve on the policing and bring more confidence. I believe Canada is doing quite a bit of work in that field too.
Things don't happen overnight, but there seems to be a lot of progression toward that. From what you're saying, it is too early to open negotiations for a return of the Taliban at this time.
