The US was strongly criticised by politicians and the media for allegedly “sabotaging” peace talks with the Taliban, who are fighting to impose strict Shariah or Islamic law in the country.
Aziz did not say how it would be determined that the Taliban were holding talks with the government or how the US would be updated by Pakistan about the status of negotiations.
Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif announced ahead of the general election in May that he would work for peace through talks.
He organised an All-Parties Conference in September that approved a plan for talks.
