Still, they’ve a host of challenges gaping at them, If the Taliban allowed their coming to power was going to be as smooth as it was during the first time. The world has changed a lot since 1996. For starters, there wasn’t important technology back also. Now, the Taliban must deal with the saturation of technology along with a generation of youths that has not seen much of the Taliban since 2001. Back in 1996, the Taliban was ate on the thoroughfares of Kabul. It isn’t quite the same now.
Piecemeal from the geopolitical changes since 2001, the part of China, too, is different moment. China will look to be the closest supporter of the Taliban after Pakistan. China will also prove to be the biggest fritterer and investor in Afghanistan, but at a price.
We’re formerly seeing Taliban members regularly meeting Chinese officers. Their meetings are aimed at expediting the resumption of direct air- trade links between the nations and the first of it saw a large weight aeroplane, carrying 45 tons of pine nuts from Kabul to China on October 31, marking the restoration of the marketable corridor.
Reports also indicated that China is formerly in the process of investing a lot in mining conditioning in Afghanistan, adding corridor of it to the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) design. With China having formerly blazoned further than$ 35 million worth of philanthropic aid for Afghanistan, and the US continuing to block Afghanistan’s access to close to$ 10 billion in Afghan means situated largely with the US Federal Reserve, it’s natural for Afghanistan to sway towards its northeastern neighbours.
In return for all the support China is offering to Afghanistan, it expects the Taliban to return the favour by setting down on the Uyghurs. The Uyghurs have a short, but pivotal history with respect to their presence in Afghanistan and the skirting areas. There are also outfits in this region that propagate views like separating the region of Xinjiang from China and freeing the tyrannized Uyghurs from China’s grasp.
This has proven to be a crucial occasion for Islamic State Khorasan Province (ISKP), which has come out of its shell ever since the Taliban took over. The ISKP is now, by far, the crucial opposition to the Taliban in Afghanistan. They’re maximizing their reach to attract further Uyghurs to join their forces.
