The senior expert of the International Crisis Group stated that the United States and its allies failed in Afghanistan, and Washington now has no pressure and leverage to create a comprehensive government. |
According to the regional office of Tasnim news agency, “Gram Smith, a senior expert at the International Crisis Group, stated that the White House has no leverage to force the Taliban to create a comprehensive government. Smith wrote in a tweet: America and its allies in the war in Afghanistan. They failed and now they don’t have the leverage to shape and create a new “comprehensive” government in Afghanistan. They are facing fundamental problems in trusting each other with the Afghanistan issues, he said: The mistrust of the Taliban and the US is related to how the victim is defined. In Afghanistan, he stated not long ago that Afghanistan has disappeared from the US foreign policy radar and that Washington does not have an active policy towards Afghanistan; Therefore, Taliban opponents should not count on American aid.
He stated that the disagreements between Republicans and Democrats lead to policy change. America won’t do anything about Afghanistan, he said: To be honest, they don’t have any good options. Because various opposition groups, such as the National Resistance Front, do not seem very strong and have not been able to become a serious military threat to the Taliban. Afghanistan has entered a deadlock and has lost the necessary means of pressure on the Taliban.
