KABUL, 11 March 2010 (IRIN) - The insurgents in Afghanistan have shown interest in negotiating with the UN and aid agencies on humanitarian access and aid distributions, according to a purported Taliban spokesman.

“Whether it’s a vaccination campaign or food aid distribution they [aid agencies] can do their activities in consultation and agreement with us,” he said.
