The Taliban won’t cooperate with the United States to contain the ISIS terrorist group after it claimed responsibility for a bomb attack that killed dozens of people in the northern city of Kunduz last week, according to a spokesman for the extremist group.

Suhail Shaheen, a spokesman for the Taliban, said in an interview Saturday that there will be no talks or coordination with Washington on how to deal with ISIS after the group’s regional affiliate took responsibility for the Kunduz Mosque attack, along with other bombings in recent weeks.
