#1 Pakistan has long stated that it wants Afghanistan to recognise the Durand Line, the 2,640km (1610 miles)-long border between the two countries. Afghans say the British-drawn, colonial era boundary line robs Afghanistan of Pashtun territory, now inside Pakistan. No Afghan government, including the Pashtun-dominated Taliban regime, which was recognised by Pakistan, has felt strong enough to recognise the Durand Line.

And yet President Karzai calls a jirga for his people on both sides of the line. Hmmm.
