Schiff: The President Should Continue Negotiating with the Taliban; He Should ‘Secure More Than Taliban Promises’

EXCERPT:

BRENNAN: "Should the president continue negotiating with the Taliban?"
SCHIFF: "The president should. I don’t think the negotiations should have been called off because of a ill-planned, ill-prepared summit and it falling apart. At the end of the day there’s only going to be one way to resolve the conflict in Afghanistan, and that’s through the negotiation. But we should secure more than Taliban promises in that negotiation, in exchange for a drawdown of American troops. We have to insist on at least a partial cease-fire so that we can see that the Taliban are both willing but also able to control their own elements."
