Pakistan was the main funder of the Taliban.
Pakistan’s Intel Agency, ISI, created the Taliban and still supports it today. Pakistan is the two faced bad actor in this region that continually keeps the embers glowing. All we need to do is to refer back to how they protected Bin laden.
if true, this is a strange turn of events.
the Afghan Mujahideen led by osama bin laden were allies of US forces against the russians in afghanistan.
the taliban was a branch or off shoot of the mujahidenn.
taliban became an enemy of US.
now a 180? with taliban getting russian backing??
still fighting over control of the poppy fields decades later.
