Afghan authorities are afraid of the departure of American troops - RUDN expert

The story of Russia's accusations of ties with Taliban militants (an organization whose activities are banned in Russia) was most likely planted with American politicians from Afghanistan, said Dmitry Egorchenkov, director of the RUDN Institute for Strategic Studies and Forecasts. He stated this on July 2 on the air of the program Time will show on Channel One. While the election campaign is underway in the United States, not only the American establishment is looking for reasons, Yegorchenkov said. They're still being tossed. Afghan history was likely thrown out of Afghanistan, where the current Afghan government understands what will happen to it if US troops leave there. Now in Kabul they understand how all this can end. The only achievement of Afghanistan during the 18 years of the Americans' stay there was a 30-fold increase in drug exports. And nothing else. Recall, as reported by the news agency, the speaker of the House of Representatives of the US Congress, Nancy Pelosi, believes that Russia should be immediately sanctioned in connection with the alleged collusion of Russian special services with militants of the Taliban terrorist group (an organization whose activities are banned in the Russian Federation) in Afghanistan.
