As Taliban continues to consolidate its power in Afghanistan, several high-ranking officials and politicians from the former government are working to form opposition fronts. Much like before, they remain scattered abroad, and their supporters are entangled in internal disputes.
Ethnic and political divisions among their followers have deepened, while the leaders themselves — still hoping to regain power — are pursuing two divergent paths. One faction insists on armed resistance, while the other continues to hope for a negotiated settlement with the Taliban. These groups unite one day, only to split the next.
-Why can’t they come together?
– Why are political alliances among Afghan leaders so short-lived and unstable?
– Why has there been no lasting coalition among them? And what fuels the deep mistrust between these politicians?
We explored these questions in an exclusive interview with Shah Mahmood Miakhel, former Acting Minister of Defense, former Governor of Nangarhar, and Head of the Political and Foreign Relations Committee of the Republican Movement.
