the high peace council has given support for an office of the taliban to be opened. that's been quite controversial. we believe the afghan government didn't support this. because they weren't in the direct negotiations about the office. but they have put some strict pre-condition pre-conditions for that office opening. that of course includes the taliban stopping killing civilians, and also other attacks, heather. >> reporter: what is the likelihood of these talks starting or working? >> reporter: well, it's very early days at the moment. this does seem to be some movement by the afghan government. they have, of course, put some strong pre-conditions. but an afghan government official said he didn't believe the pre-conditions president buspre-condition were so strong that the taliban would walk away from the office and possibly the peace talk. the taliban has said they won't
