In this episode, we delve into the complex dynamics shaping Afghanistan under Taliban rule. As the country grapples with internal governance challenges and global isolation, we explore how its relationships with neighboring nations—Pakistan, Iran, China, and India—are evolving. We also assess the impact of regional alliances, economic dependencies, and the broader geopolitical stakes involving major global powers. From humanitarian crises to security concerns and shifting diplomatic strategies, this episode provides an in-depth analysis of Afghanistan’s current crossroads and its implications for regional stability and global interests.
