Afghanistan, following the events surrounding the capture of Kabul by the Taliban*, is now another country that has fallen out of the US-centric “liberal world order”
Russian Senator Alexei Pushkov said this on Friday, 20 August.
“The Taliban are in control of Afghanistan. The previous largely artificial power established by the Americans has collapsed. Afghanistan is henceforth another country that has fallen out of the American-centric ‘liberal world order’ that has been seriously shaken in recent years”, – the senator wrote in his Telegram feed.
According to him, the Taliban are feeling their strength, opportunities to play with Iran, Qatar, China, Turkey, and more. Pushkov noted that the Taliban are also not shy about dictating their terms to the US.
