#Trump has talked about an “#Abdul” before in discussing the #Taliban. Trump in the past has said that then-Secretary of State Mike Pompeo negotiated w/ “Abdul,” which could have bee a reference to top Taliban policy leader Abdul Ghani Baradar.

Baradar met w/ Pompeo in Qatar in 2020 & was among the group’s negotiators w/the Trump admin over the withdrawal of US troops from #Afghanistan.

“I got involved & #Abdul is the head of the #Taliban he is still the head of the Taliban &I told Abdul, ‘Don’t do it anymore. You do it anymore, you’re going to have problems’ & he said, ‘Why do you send me a picture of my house?’ I said, ‘You’re going to have to figure that out, Abdul’ & for 18 months we had nobody killed” Trump said.

It’s not clear who #Trump was referring to.

Hibatullah Akhundzada is the Taliban’s leader, having been in charge since 2016.
