The US will skip consultations on reconciliation in Afghanistan, which will be held in Moscow on April 14, acting US Department of State Mark Toner said.
"We don’t plan to participate in these regional talks," he said at a briefing on Thursday.
"We do generally support regional efforts that work with the Afghan Government to build support for a peaceful outcome in Afghanistan, and I think we - going forward, we do plan to work with Russia and other key regional stakeholders to enhance dialogue on Afghanistan," the spokesman added.
The Pentagon said yesterday that the US military has dropped the biggest non-nuclear bomb ever used in combat on an ISIS tunnel complex in Afghanistan.
