Recent China-mediated talks in Urumqi between Pakistan and Afghanistan yielded "useful" progress toward a ceasefire and border reopening, as stated by Taliban officials on April 7 and Chinese announcements on April 8, tempering trader sentiment on de-escalation amid the ongoing 2026 war. Sparked by Pakistani airstrikes on Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) camps in late February, the conflict escalated with retaliatory attacks, strikes on Kabul and Kandahar, and a brief Eid al-Fitr truce that expired March 27, leading to renewed clashes. UN experts urged a permanent truce on March 24, but persistent hostilities highlight uncertainty; further negotiation rounds could tip the balance before market resolution.

If the agreement is officially reached before the resolution date, this market will resolve to "Yes," regardless of whether the ceasefire officially starts afterward.
Any form of informal agreement will not be considered an official ceasefire. Humanitarian pauses will not count toward the resolution of this market.
A peace deal or political framework will qualify if it includes a publicly announced and mutually agreed halt in military engagement, effective on a specific date. Frameworks or agreements that outline terms for a future peace but do not include an explicit, dated commitment to stop fighting will not count.
This market's resolution will be based on official announcements from the governments of Pakistan and the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan; however, a wide consensus of credible media reporting stating an official ceasefire agreement has been reached will suffice.
