This time the Taliban (banned in the Russian Federation) did not manage to set up their bases in Pakistan. I believe that our specialists in this direction also worked with the Pakistanis.

The Pakistani army has a MAIN task to keep the refugees out.
In such a situation, Al-Qaeda can restore its influence in Afghanistan in a couple of years at the most.
They have strong positions in Pakistan and Iraq.
They and IS within the framework of Afghanistan will be closely
. It will not be possible to agree with THEM ..

But the United States insists on opening the borders of Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan ... Somehow it would be worthwhile to think about why

Interesting movie. What is it that the Taliban are handing over the packs? The girls are dancing antiresno.

It seems that Erdogan has been appointed as the overseer from NATO and conditions are favorable for him. The Taliban have no allies around the perimeter, they are tightly fed, NATO will ensure the overwhelming technical superiority, Erdogan will bring up his barmaley from Syria and Libya ... At first glance, everything is working out. But let us remember how many times the mattress covers were burned on their "cunning tricks". So we keep "ears on top of the head", and wait ...

Erdogan will pull up his barmaley from Syria and Libya ...

There are already 10000 of them.

In the photo to the article Embraer Super Tucano. So toucans came in handy against the barmaley.

So it seems like, in addition to training purposes, it was intended to fight partisans, rebels and other drug mafia ...

Such a topic - if everything weak and unreliable falls off from the military forces, which are government ones, and a stable combat strength remains, then the confrontation can be long ... if external "allies" do not stop providing them with everything they need.
The assumption ... will be so, will not happen, we'll see.

Weird. As soon as the Taliban pressed the Afghan army in almost all directions, they suddenly remembered that they had aviation. This is how they built a "democratic" society - some sat in a green zone protecting themselves and controlling drug trafficking, others hoped that the first would protect them from the Taliban.

A m. Are these Afghan pilots like the Vietnamese Li Xi Tsin?

Whoever says what, the fuss between the Taliban and the Afghan government will not end quickly. It is possible that they will even agree on the division of the country. Moreover, if China chooses official Kabul, then anything is possible that they will push their interests even in the Taliban, they will buy someone, and they will clean up the rest, and I think who they will buy will be much more.

Quote: Andrey Samsonov

Especially if China chooses the official Kabul

What for? The Taliban are a Pakistani project, and Pakistan has been an ally of China for half a century.

It was news to me that the Afghans have aviation. In the late 80s, Afghans also studied at my military school. To put it mildly, not very smart people.
