In a statement released on Sunday by the Afghan presidential palace, Kabul called for sincere cooperation between all parties aimed at establishing peace in the country.
The groups which are engaged in war against their people and country must understand that they have been deceived by the conspiracies of the enemies of Afghanistan and continuing on this path which is only against the Afghan people and interests of Afghanistan will only lead to further crimes, the statement said.
The government called on joint efforts by all sides in order to prevent bloodshed, devastation, and conspiracies aimed at sabotaging the peace process and security in the country.
Kabul added that it was also aware of and would monitor developments including meetings between the Taliban and Haqqani network, which recently announced its support for the groups new leader.
During a teleconference from Germany, Afghan President Ashraf Ghani also said Kabul opposes parallel movements working against the countrys political system.
Peace talks between the Afghan government and Taliban militants were halted last week when the death of the militant groups leader, Mullah Omar, was confirmed and Mullah Akhtar Mohammad Mansour was appointed as his successor.

Some reports even say it was known that Omar had chosen the former deputy and co-founder of the movement, Mullah Baradar Akhund, who is reportedly more inclined to peace negotiations with Kabul, as his successor.
Under the current circumstances, the future of the peace talks under the groups new leadership remains difficult to predict.
The Taliban has been engaged in a militancy against Kabul since it was overthrown following the US-led invasion of Afghanistan in 2001.
