The outlawed Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan clarified its position on the proposed peace talks in an email sent to journalists by spokesman Ihsanullah Ihsan, who said the group had not got "any serious response on our offer for talks".
The Taliban "do not have any trust in (the) army for talks being successful, so we need some surety about (the) army", Ihsan said.
Current steps towards talks "are in danger (because of) the mood of the army", he claimed.
Ihsan accused the Pakistan Army of selling "out a part of the Pakistani state (of) Kashmir" and said the military was "now announcing that they have just threats from inside, meaning Taliban".
He claimed the army "has always made politicians powerless".
Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan chief Hakimullah Mehsud made the offer for peace talks in a video sent to journalists in the country's northwest last month.
Mehsud said his group was willing to negotiate with the government but would not disarm.
The Taliban have set other conditions for the peace talks, including rewriting the country
