So Pakistan wants Centeral Asian countries to use it's Sea ports (Gawadar and Karachi) for trade, potentially a 90 Billions dollars trade agreement but how can it be materliazed if there is no peace in Afghanistan ?

Good question. Encouraging Taliban would be suicidal with respect to this trade.

This is why we need to throw full backing behind Taliban. lets get Afghanistan secure.

Why? As long as Taliban control the country, they also benefit from transit trade.

Without a compromise between Taliban and other factions, Afghanistan will never be stable.

This is not 1996. In the past the Taliban were being undermined by external elements who were threatened by the potential impact of the Taliban controlling Afghanistan. Also under Ahmed Shah Mahsud there was a leadership figure that other countries felt Afghanistan could unite under.

Today Northern Alliance has been in power and failed for 20 years. They have no leadership which is noteworthy. Taliban are presenting themselves as politically mature and have engaged with Iran, Turkey, Pakistan, China and even Russia. Taliban is assuring people it will not let Afghanistan become wild west, as long as they are supported.

This is why we need to provide them military support in terms of aircover and airstrikes post September. We need to do this under the guise of anti IS operations, but actually need to use our resources to destroy resistance to Taliban takeover - if any remains by then.

The Taliban would ensure there’s peace in Afganistan! They have already subdued 85% of Afganistan including border crossings and major road networks! Looks like they’re implementing a “higher plan”!!! The Russian block has already mobilized forces at the Tajik side of Wakhan borders! If necessary they might annex it! Connectivity to Pak is no jokes….
Going from CAS to Urumqi and then to Gwadar will double the travel time and cost. I wish whoever forms government in Afghanistan has some sense of the economic benefit their country can reap if they have peace and security.
Why do you think the Taliban are beating the hell out of the ANA thugs and has captured almost the entire Afganistan?? Nothing is being left to the chances…..

I don't know whether it is feasible, but I think rather than going through the middle of Afghanistan, we should form some sort of corridor with the consent of the afghan government, to go through wakhan to bypass the mess in the rest of the country.

Wakhan seems like the best option but it is very remote and with difficult terrain, may be a challenge to run a year round functioning rail/road link through there.

I don't think we have any other choices? The situation in Afghanistan will remain uncertain for the foreseeable future. Other countries have rich experience in running commerce through such climates and terrains. We can learn a thing or two from them.
While, It is certainly not easy but quite feasible to lay a track/road through there. It will minimize the uncertainty and blackmail of going through the heartland of that country.

Zero will come out of it you can bank on that.

Why because what ever visit PTI has expect KSA and UAE has not materialized.

There are so MOU signed and not even 1 implemented under PTI government.
