Ideological Affinity: The Taliban of Afghanistan and Pakistan are considered “ideological twins” with common roots and tendencies. This makes the Afghan Taliban challenging to suppress the TTP due to a strong ideological connection.
Fear of strengthening ISIS: Taliban It is concerned that a preemptive stance against TTP could push TTP fighters towards ISIS in Khorasan.
