Taliban militants have warned that they will resume attacks against foreign forces if they do not withdraw from Afghanistan by the May 1 deadline, in response to US President Joe Biden offering an unclear timetable on when American troops would be pulled back.</p>
<p>
&quot;All responsibility for the prolongation of war, death and destruction will be on the shoulders of those whom committed this violation,&quot; DPA news agency quoted the insurgent group as saying in a statement on Friday.</p>
<p>
The May 1 deadline is part of an agreement the US administration under former President Donald Trump signed with the Taliban in February 2020 in Doha.</p>
<p>
It is now under review by the Biden administration.</p>
<p>
Under the deal, the US promised to withdraw all US and international forces from Afghanistan. In return, the Taliban vowed to cut ties with Al Qaeda and other terrorist groups.</p>
<p>
Since the signing of the deal, there have been no attacks on US-led NATO forces in the country. However, the Taliban has intensified attacks against the Afghan government.</p>
<p>
In addition, there is no tangible progress in ongoing peace talks between the representatives of the Taliban and the government that started in September 2020.</p>
<p>
On Thursday, Biden said that he &quot;can&#39;t picture&quot; US troops still being in Afghanistan next year, but he did not offer a precise timetable.</p>
<p>
The Taliban called Biden&#39;s remarks &quot;vague&quot; and emphasised that the Doha agreement is the best option to end the past 20 years of war.</p>
<p>
The group added that it was committed to its part under the deal.</p>
