In February 1989, the Soviet Union withdrew from Afghanistan, ending for ten years but no successful military adventure.However, the painful memories of the Soviet Union in the Empire Cemetery did not scare Russian President Putin. Instead, he wanted to use the time to withdraw the troops in the United States and NATO to fill the vacuum of power and expand the influence of Russia.Compared with the Soviet Union 30 years ago, Putin's strategy can not only fight with the US trial, but also the strategy of chasing geopolitical interests. It is also incomplete. In the future, it will not only be difficult to fall into the state of retreat, but also compare the foreign policy of Washington.
According to a report from the New York Times in late June, Russia's intelligence department is not only connected with the Taliban, which is regarded by the United States as a terrorist organization, but also secretly rewarded militants and killed the US and NATO soldiers in Afghanistan.Even though the U.S. intelligence agency has reached the above conclusions and has reported relevant information to the White House, Trump has not authorized to take action against Russia.Trump and Russian Foreign Ministry spokesman Zaharava subsequently, questioning the true nature of the bonus hunter.Just say#8943;#8943; Russia only provides weapons to the legal government of Afghanistan.Although it is still difficult to verify the authenticity of the bonus hunter, Russia's political situation in Afghanistan is incomparable.
Just as some people have politics, and interests of interests will also attract great powers to intervene in the political situation. This is only the logic of international relations 101, but why Moscow's nightmare in 1989 has not yet dispersed, so he hurriedly returned to the empire.Cemetery?Afghanistan is a country with a low development, and the foundation of the economy is arrears, and there is no central government that can perform effective governance.However, Afghanistan has natural resources to be mined, and Moscow also considers ISIS Horosan's branch (ISKP) hiding in the mountainous area of Afghanistan.
Three considerations of Russia
ISKP's strength is far worse than the ISIS of the Baghdadi period, but it has played a potential challenge to Moscow's strategic interests.Although Russia and Afghanistan are not bordering, there are five Central Asia State separation between the two countries, but Afghanistan is still the sphere of influence of Moscow. In view of the continuation of ISIS's recruitment of combatants in Central Asia, there are at least three Putin continuing in Central Asia. There are at least three Putin.Reasonable concerns: 1. Russian citizens go to Afghanistan to participate in terrorist training, and expect to start the sacred war in the future; 2. ISKP cooperation with separateist organizations in the Caucasian region;The turmoil directly weakened Moscow's influence on the five Central Asia. Therefore, even if the Taliban was notorious, how could Putin, who was old, could not understand the truth of the enemy's enemies?
The interaction between Russia and Taliban also not only shared information.Russia's intervention is on the surface due to concerns about terrorist activities, but the ultimate goal is to stand in Afghanistan after the war.As early as 2017, some media have reportedly reported that Taliban's military equipment was provided by the Russian side, and sometimes Afghanistan officials said that Moscow was working with Tehran to establish a training camp for Taliban fighters in Iran, and has opened up Iranian to Afghan weapon supply supply.network.In addition, Putin also invited Afghan government officials and representatives of the Taliban to attend the centennial event of Russia and Afghanistan. In February this year, the U.S. and Taliban conferences in the Dogha, Russia's influence can also be seen in the United States.Published a joint statement together.
The trajectory of history is always repeated.For example, in the last century, Afghanistan became the battlefield of the Cold War of the United States and the Soviet Union. The current chaos still has the color of the agent war, which has only changed the change of the characters of the two countries.After the Soviet Union invaded Afghanistan in the end of 1979, in order to prevent the Soviet forces from sitting on a large power, the United States was afraid of the fear of the Vietnam War, and decided to secretly fund the sacred warriors such as Laden to fight against the Soviet Union. In the endLay the foreshadowing for the disintegration of the empire.But Feng Shui turns.In the past, the Soviet Union, as an intruder, was replaced by the United States in 2001. Moscow can now borrow Taliban to weaken the power of the United States and NATO.
