I could answer that in a number of ways. I will say, first of all, that there has been a program under way—and I think the CDS made reference to this in previous testimony—called PTS. “Peace through strength”, I believe, is what that stands for. It's clearly an Afghan government program that ISAF and Canadians have no specific role to play in, but it is one under which Afghan people who might have had affiliations or ties to the Taliban and who wish to renounce those ties are encouraged to do so. There's an actual program that is managed from the national, through the provincial, down to the district level to encourage support for the Government of Afghanistan.
As far as negotiations go with the Taliban, we are there to support the Government of Afghanistan. We certainly are not negotiating with the Taliban. What President Karzai chooses to do, and what his officials and authorities choose to do, is obviously up to them.
