The Taliban have so far taken control over 18 provincial capitals across Afghanistan. Amid all the chaos, there are reports that President of Afghanistan, Ashraf Ghani, may address the nation. The Taliban and Pakistan, however, demand his resignation. Sources said that the President of Afghanistan, Ashraf Ghani, is likely to address the country on Friday or Saturday to inform them about the fate of its government. The meeting will most likely be about how the transition might take place.
