According to a source, CIA Director William Burns secretly met with Taliban leader Abdul Ghani Baradar on Monday.
The meeting is the Taliban's biggest meeting with the Biden administration since the Afghan capital fell.
This comes right before the planned evacuation of Americans and Afghans from Kabul on August 31.
A spokesman for the Taliban told CBS News that any extension beyond the August 31 deadline would be considered a "violation" and "The response depends on the decision of our leadership."
Both the CIA and National Security Council declined to comment.
